A major environmental issue is pollution in production of cement throughout the world. Large number of carbondioxide emissions are released in manufacturing of cement which leads to global warming. Geopolymer concrete (GPC) is an alternate to the cement and environmental- friendly material in construction fields because of zero emission of greenhouse gases. In this study ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) and fly ash as blenders and sodium silicate & sodium hydroxide as combined alkaline activator used making of GPC. The 40% of GGBS is replaced with fly ash. In this study 8M (molarity) of NaoH solution is used. Manufactured sand (stone dust) because of bankrupting natural resources posed threat to the environment. In this study mechanical properties and durability properties of geopolymer concrete are done. Mechanical properties are compression strength test, tensile test and flexural test and durability studies are absorption test, sulphate test.
