Specification of geopolymer concrete: general guide
This general guide contains: 1. an introduction to geopolymer concrete, its constituents and how it is manufactured; 2. an examination of how geopolymer binder differs from Portland cement; 3. the status of geopolymer concrete as a construction material. It also includes a brief summary of Austroads project TS1835, initiated to develop member agencies’ practical knowledge in geopolymer concrete, which includes: 1. the conclusions drawn from an extensive literature review, identifying important parameters related to manufacture and performance of geopolymer concrete, as well as gaps that existed in knowledge at the start of this project, 2. the conclusions of the experimental work conducted under this project. Finally, the guide compares the differences and similarities between the specification of geopolymer concrete and concrete made with Portland cement.
