Abstract
Geopolymers, an alternate class of binders which is a cementless one has emerged in the recent decades to replace cement. Geopolymers invented by Joseph Davidovits in 1978 were initially developed to serve as a fire resistant material, but it has now gained momentum as an effective alternate to cementitious binders to limit greenhouse gas emissions. In view of the environmental degradation caused by the cement industry and indiscriminate sand mining, an attempt has been made in this research work to develop geopolymer concrete using Bottom ash, GGBFS which are industrial by products as replacement for cement and Foundry sand, a by product from the foundries as replacement for natural sand and to assess their strength and durability properties.
