Abstract
Geopolymer is a well-known material names by Davidovit’s since 1970’s. The other names of geopolymer is alkali-activated cement, geocement, alkali-bonded ceramic, inorganic polymer concrete, and hydroceramic. In a simple explanation, the termed ‘geopolymers’ comes when the inorganic polymeric material synthesized in a manner similar to thermosetting organic polymers. The development and contribution of geopolymer to the industries are moving stage by stage until today. Since a decades, performance of Geopolymer has been evaluated and tested by researchers in many field. The result published showed the unique bonding between aluminosilicate and alkali solution produce high compressive strength, low shrinkage, resistance toward acid, resistance to fire and etc. Advance research showed the application of Geopolymer in civil engineering works (including structures and geotechnical) also giving a good strength result. To that extend, this paper try to review performances of geopolymer application in geotechnical fields.
