Geopolymer Concrete: A Review [PDF]
Indian Journal of Structure Engineering, 2021 Geopolymer Concrete is a new innovative type of concrete, and it is used widely in the construction industries. This type of concrete comes into place due to reduced cement content usage in the construction of structures. Already we are using cement as a binding material widely in the construction sector, but the problem is due to the cement content ...
