Abstract |
Various measures have been taken for enhancing the properties of cement as for eminence and stiffness. The improvement of solid innovation can reduce the utilization of common assets and vitality sources and minimize the weight of toxins on condition. In concrete technology, proper introduction of fly ash & silica fume in concrete improves both the mechanical and durability characteristics of the concrete. A huge quantity of by-product or wastes such as fly-ash, copper slag, silica fume, stone-dust etc. are generated by industries, which causes environmental as well as health inconvenience due to discarding and removal. The waste materials which can be utilized as extra cementitious material and proper presentation of fly ash & silica smoulder in cement enhances both the mechanical and stiffness qualities of the solid. This paper presents the experimental study on partial replacement of Cement by Fly Ash & adding of Silica Fume in the mix to reduce the amount of cement in concrete. Fly Ash & Silica Fumes are most popular material used in the concrete to improve its compressive, flexural, split tensile strength and also increase its durability. |
