Abstract

In this study, the compressive strength and split tensile strength were performed on totally 264 laboratory made Geopolymer Concrete cubes and 264 laboratory made Geopolymer Concrete cylinders. Regression analysis using R software was carried out. A simple relationship was determined and correlated between compressive strength and split tensile strength. The concrete cubes were prepared with various mix proportions that yield cube crushing strength within the range of 20 to 60 Mpa.
