Fly ash based geopolymer concrete-silica fume is suitable for concrete in hot weather in the absence of external heat.
Sodium hydroxide is the dominant factor in 7 days compressive strength of FGC-silica fume.
Sodium hydroxide can be reduced for lower compressive strength needs.
Portland cement replacement increases the early and final compressive strength in ambient curing conditions.
Portland cement utilizes the free water leading to a reduction in the formation of microcracks.
