Abstract - This project is all about the use of class-f flyash in concrete as a partial and full replacer. The partial replacement of cement with flyash results in a concrete called Geopolymer composite concrete. And the complete replacement of cement with the flyash is called Geopolymer concrete . The Pozzolana Portland cement concrete is considered as a control concrete. Addition of steel fibre is made in order to check the cracking strength of the concrete. It is added in the percentage of 0,0.5 & 1.5 to the concrete. A special mix design for the flyash based concrete was made in the ratio of 1:1.21:1.95 as per the guidelines provided in the Asian Journal of civil Engineers. GPC and GPCC were made for the grade of M25 and the specimens was casted for 28 days and have been tested. In order to achieve the strength in the GPC and GPCC sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium silicate (Na₂SiO₃) solutions was used instead of water in the ratio of 1:2.5. The alkaline liquid to flyash ratio was determined as 0.42 from the consistency test. Oven curing was done for the Geopolymer mix for 24 hours followed by 28 days of atmospheric curing. Fresh concrete test –slump cone and hardened concrete tests like compressive test, split tensile test and flexural strength were done and the results were discussed. Future Durability test the obtained results it is clear that GPC and GPCC both gives the required strength for M25 grade with 10 molecular concentration..
