Abstract

The dataset presented here emanates from preliminary studies that compared the early-age compressive strengths of geopolymer mortars produced from construction and demolition wastes (CDW) commonly found in Qatar using different alkaline activators. Waste concrete, waste bricks and steel slag were used as aluminosilicate sources for the geopolymer mortars. Waste concrete was used as fine aggregate (75 µm to 4 mm), while solid or hollow red clay bricks were used together with steel slag as aluminosilicate powders. Solid red clay brick (75 µm to 1.4 mm) was also considered as fine aggregate. Different alkaline activators including solid powder or ground pellet forms of Ca(OH)
