Abstract

Cement Concrete is the most broadly utilized development material on the planet with around six billion tones being produced each year by releasing a large amount CO2 at production of pozzolana cement which results in increasing of Global Warming. There is need to reduce the global anthropogenic carbon dioxide, this has stimulated researchers in search of sustainable building materials. GPC can possibly control of CO2 discharge into the atmosphere because here we use binding material as natural or byproduct material like fly ash, rice husk, ground granulated blast furnace slag, silica fume , red mud etc. In this thesis GPC is made by solidified cementation paste produced using GGBS. The goal of the present investigation is to observe the impact of Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag in GPC and by replacing of 100% Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag with Ordinary Portland Cement. A study had done on GPC with Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag, taking the alkaline solution i.e., sodium hydroxide of 6 molarity, 8 molarity and 10 molarity. The extent of dissolvable activators is 1:2. Calcium silicate is encircled when GGBS gets reacted with sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate. A blend mix for GPC was planned by accepting the unit weight of GPC as 2400 kg/m3. In this thesis we conduct the GPC with GGBS to analyze the progressions of properties like strength and durability.
