Fly ash-GBBS blended geopolymer mortar for early engineering characteristic at ambient temperature

Geopolymer concept is by using industrial waste materials which is rich in silica and alumina, then activating them with alkaline solution. An appropriate binder combination that achieves high early age strength at ambient temperature using FA is still subject required. Thus, this study has been des...
