Abstract

The article presents a review of research conducted on cement-free concretes based on alkaline-activated waste materials. Research is conducted in order to create concretes that are in line with the doctrine of sustainable development. Their main assumption is the reuse of recycled materials in newly produced building materials without compromising their properties. In addition, attempts are made to eliminate Portland cement, replacing it partially or completely with fly ashes or metakaolin. Another modification of concrete consists of replacing natural aggregate with artificial aggregate. The research conducted on lightweight concretes based on fly ashes, and alkali-activated porous ash aggregate is also presented.
