This study presents an investigation of the effect of hydrocarbon fire exposure on the residual compres-sive strength properties of geopolymer concrete panels and cylinders. Gladstone flyash was utilized as the binder whilst the alkaline solution/fly-ash ratio and sodium silicate to sodium hydroxide (N...
