Abstract
The research has shown that every one ton of cement produce releases half ton of carbon dioxide, so there is an instantaneous need to manage the usage of cement. On the hand materials wastes such as Rice husk Ash (RHA) is difficult to dispose. The Rice husk Ash imparts high early strength to concrete and also condense the permeability of concrete. Therefore the use of Rice husk Ash in concrete not only reduces the ecological pollution but also enhances the properties of concrete and also reduces the cost. This project mainly deals with the replacement of cement with Rice husk Ash. The concrete mix designed by varying the proportions of Rice husk Ash for 0%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 30% the cubes are been casted and cured in normal water for ages of 3, 7 and 28, the properties like slump cone test and compaction factor test for fresh concrete and compressive strength and split tensile strength for hardened concrete are verified and results are analysed.
