Abstract

In this present Experimental investigation two types of concrete are prepared and studied in both the types of concrete the cement is completely replaced by GGBS and FLY ASH at (40%,60%,80%,100%) and (60%,40%,20%,100%) respectively. But in type 2 concrete the sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide solution were added at ratio 2.5. The sodium hydroxide used was of molarity 12 (12M) and the LIQUID TO BINDER RATIO was 0.5. Among two types of concrete prepared one being prepared considering economical parameters (type1) and the other being prepared considering strength parameters (type2). Compressive, flexural and split Tensile strength were optimum for the mix proportion where cement was replaced by 100%GGBS and 0% Fly Ash.
