Rice Husk Ash in Concrete, Portland Pozzolana Cement,Cubic strength
Abstract
The optimized RHA, by controlled burn or grinding, has been used as a pozzolanic material in cement and concrete. Using it provides several advantages, such as improved strength and durability properties, and environmental benefits related to the disposal of waste materials and to reduced carbon dioxide emissions. Up to now, little research has been done to investigate the use of RHA as supplementary material in cement and concrete production .The main objective of this work is to study the suitability of the rice husk ash as a pozzolanic material for cement replacement in concrete. However it is expected that the use of rice husk ash in concrete improve the strength properties of concrete. Also it is an attempt made to develop the concrete using rice husk ash as a source material for partial replacement of cement, which satisfies the structural properties of concrete like compressive strength.
From the entire experimental work & studies it is concluded that mix M20 with the replacement of 20% is the best combination among all mixes, which gives the maximum compressive strength.
