Present investigation focused on identifying the possibility of an alternative binder instead of cement in concrete. The reason is the hike in the cost of cement manufacturing, also cement releases high amount of Carbon dioxide during its production. So a new binder called Geopolymer is used for the purpose. In this project, Geopolymer concrete is the solution for100% replace of the cement content by using Geopolymer binder which consists of fly ash, GGBS and alkaline liquids by ambient curing instead of steam or oven curing, as it is practically tough to have an oven curing or steam curing at site. On the other hand, utilization waste Glasses as binder in geo polymer concrete mixes will provide feasibility for sustainable development. This study is focused on developing mix design for geopolymer and to study the mechanical and durability properties of G40 Tertiary Blended Geopolymer concrete. Tertiary means three in order i.e., Geopolymer concrete is designed by using three binder materials such as flyash, GGBS and Glass - powder. The Binder materials will be activated using Sodium Hydroxide and Sodium Silicate as Alkaline Solution.
