Concrete is the world’s most adaptable material and reliable concrete material. Next to water, concrete is most used material. Ordinary Portland Cement concrete is the second only to the automobile as major generator of carbon dioxide. In recent years, researchers have focused on finding an alternative to ordinary Portland cement to reduce carbon footprint. Natural material will be scare in future, to fine alternative solution by using such waste and also decrease the scarcity of landfill space. Most critical areas are still undiscovered for production of Geopolymer concrete. Various waste materials which possesses pozzolanic properties are capable of utilized for production of Geopolymer concrete. Apart from that such waste materials can also utilized for replacement of aggregates in Geopolymer concrete. Geopolymer is environment-friendly binder which has gain interest among the research community in last few decades. This type of research work in the area of Geopolymer concrete can drastically change properties of Geopolymer concrete in positive side and ultimately helpful in protection of environment by utilization of waste material in substantial amount. The main objective of this work is to produce the Geopolymer concrete of M25 and M40 grade by using industrial waste with alkaline solution concentration of 8M and 10M. The Geopolymer mix was prepared by using GGBS as binder, alkaline solution as activators. In mix design of M25 and M40 grade, normal sand was also replace up to 10% and 20%. The effect of various curing method were check on compressive strength of GPC and to find most economical and effective method of curing for GPC.
