Abstract:Geopolymer concrete with time is gaining recognition as a sustainable alternative to Portland cement concrete, offering lower carbon emissions and utilising industrial by-products. While prior research focussed on its mechanical properties for structural purposes, this study explores its potential for paving applications. A unique geopolymer concrete mixture suitable for paving, referred to as paving quality geopolymer concrete (PQGC), was developed by incorporating slag sand (SS) as a substitute for river san… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
