Analysis of Compressive Strength of Low Volume Fly Ash Concrete

Abstract

Fly ash is a major by-product of thermal power plant, the alternative option for its disposal was to use it in building materials. Incorporation of fly ash in concrete specimen has shown enhancement in properties of concrete. The study was undertaken to determine the effect of low volume fly ash on the compressive strength of concrete. The fly ash content was 10% by weight of cement. The stone dust was also incorporated for partial replacement of natural aggregate while recycled aggregate (RA) was also introduced at the varying rate of 5%, 10% and 15%. The study concludes that the addition of fly ash, stone dust and recycled aggregate together will enhance its compressive strength and will render it more green and sustainable.
