Abstract [eng] Environmentally friendly building materials are becoming increasingly relevant in civil engineering in view of their contribution toward sustainable development. This research is focused on hybrid geopolymer concrete (geopolymer with ordinary Portland-cement (OPC) additive) with the objective of analysing strength development. In this research, hybrid geopolymer concrete, manufactured using biomass bottom ash, fly ash and production waste from the manufacture of aluminium fluoride (silica gel) with 4 different amounts of OPC (0%, 5%, 10% and 15%) is studied. Each blend is cured at a temperature of 50 0C and the material is tested after 7, 14 and 28 days. X-ray powder diffraction and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy were used as investigation methods. The purpose of research was to study the chemical composition and the strength development in hybrid geopolymer concrete made from OPC and the industrial by-products mentioned above.
