Abstract

Infrastructure sector in developing countries is growing very rapidly. Availability and cost of construction materials plays a vital role in maintaining this growth momentum. In the present age the waste generated from industriesis the huge concern for the environment, health, and cause for land filling. Recycling of such wastes and using them in construction materials appears to be viable solution not only to the pollution problem but also an economical option in construction. There are many choices in regard to selection of materials in any type of constructions. Due to growing interest in sustainable construction, engineers and architects are motivated to choose the materials which are more sustainable. Geo polymer concrete capable for sustainable construction is characterized by application of industrial wastes to reduce consumption of natural resources and energy and pollution of the environment. Replacement of materials over nominal concrete is what makes Geo polymer concrete more environmental friendly concrete.It contains fly ash, alkaline solution as binding material. In view of utilization of industrial waste in Geo polymer Concrete, the present paper reviews various Industrial waste materials at different levels in Geo polymer Concrete. Compressive strength of Geo polymer Concrete incorporating different waste materials is reviewed and recommendations are suggested at the outcome of the study. The reviewed approach for development of new construction material using industrial waste is useful to provide a potential sustainable source.The main objective of this investigation is to increase the strength of Geo polymer concrete and decrease the cost of Geo polymer concrete by replacing natural resourceswith various industrial waste materialssuch as waste glass powder, Fly Ash, copper slag and Steel slag, Granite slurry,bottom ash,M-Sand, Micro Silica, Nano Silica, Foundry Sand, etc. This paper describes the literature which isbased on Geo polymer concrete in which various industrial wastes such as waste glass powder, Fly Ash, Bottom Ash, Copper Slag etc., replaced by natural resources in Geo polymer concrete. This paper provides a review of research era in the area of Geo polymer concrete.
