In this research, the influence of various parameters on the consistency and setting times of low-calcium fly ash-based geopolymer cement under varied heat curing temperature were investigated. Systematic trials were carried to optimise the normal consistency and setting times over a number of parameters. The consistency of the geopolymer cement does not show any variation when mixed with different combinations of alkaline activator solution...
