Abstract
Concrete is the world’s most versatile, durable and very reliable material. Geopolymer concrete is an innovative construction material which is produced by the chemical action of inorganic molecules. Fly ash is a by-product of coal obtained from the thermal power plant and it is available in plenty worldwide. Fly ash is rich in silica and alumina reacted with alkaline solution produced aluminosilicate gel and it is acted as the binding material for the concrete. Glass fiber reinforced Geopolymer concrete (GFRGC) is the combination of fly ash, alkaline liquid, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and glass fibers. The present work is only an accumulation of information about GFRGC and the research work which is already carried out by other researchers.
