Abstract
newline Concrete is the most prevalent of all composite materials made by man and is one of
newlinethe most important building materials. Because of its innumerable qualities, such as low
newlinecost, worldwide availability, high resilience and the ability to withstand extreme
newlineenvironments, it is likely to be considered by far as the most common building material
newlineand continue to have the same importance in the future. This building material,
newlinehowever, must meet the highly challenging demands of modern concrete structures,
newlinerepresented by advances in architectural concepts, the complexity of construction,
newlineproblematic details of reinforcement, etc. On the other hand, the exponential rise in
newlinepopulation and allied demands has led to a significant rise in the worldwide use of
newlineconcrete. Undeniably, concrete usage is highest second only to that of water that
newlinerevitalizes academia-industries to achieve or innovate certain more effective,
newlineenvironmental friendly and cost-efficient concrete solution for sustainable
newlinedevelopment.
newlineConcrete is the second widely used material made by man after water in the world. It is
newlineobtained in appropriate amounts by combining cementing materials, gravel, aggregates,
newlineetc. When placed in shapes, the mixture could be hardened into the rock as the mass
newlinecalled Concrete. As already discussed, OPC is the main production component in
newlineordinary Portland concrete, resulting in an increase in environmental pollution and a
newlinedecline in raw materials, as well as a high rate of growth in demand. For OPC output,
newlinelarge amounts of burning fuel and calcareous decomposition are needed, which results
newlinein significant CO2 emissions. To mitigate these environmental issues and other
newlineproblems associated with the manufacturing of conventional concrete, geopolymer
newlineconcrete has been introduced.
newlineThe development of new technology in the material science is progressing rapidly .in
newlinelast three decades ,a lots of research works were carried out throughout globe to
