摘　　要：The present study describes the experiments on the application of geopolymer paste for groutless in situ casting or flooring. The paste was synthesized from fly ash and sodium silicate solution and cured at room temperature, 60 and 80℃ for 24 hours. To simulate flooring application, the geopolymer paste was casted on Portland cement cubes which have been fully hydrated for 28 days. Silica fume was added to reduce cracks but at the same time compressive strength decreased. Averaged compressive strength decreased from 53 MPa to 37 MPa for paste cured at 60℃. Curing at higher temperatures produced stronger geopolymer, with compressive strength of 12 MPa, 53 MPa and 67 MPa for geopolymer cured at room temperature, 60℃ and 80℃ respectively, however, higher curing temperature resulted in more cracking when the geopolymer paste was applied on the Portland cement substrate. Averaged hardness values were 65 and 43 Brinnel scale （BHN）, and wear rate, measured using Ogoshi machine, were 0.66 and 1.80 mm3/min for samples cured at 60 and 80℃ respectively. Unless surface hardening was applied, the material is not suitable for flooring but do so for decorative masonry.
