TECHNOLOGY Utilization of Fly ash in Improving Concrete Properties (original) (raw)

The following paper is related with finding out the utilization of fly ash in improving concrete prope rties and its several environmental benefits. Fly ash is pozzolon ic material & it improves the properties of concret e like compressive strength & Durability. Here the method used for determining this is experimental. Here cub es casted with different amounts of fly ash proportions rangi ng from 10%-30% are used and their 7 and 28 days strength are found out. The strength of cubes was found out by t he use of compressive testing machine. Their degree of economy has also been found out. In the present study the r esults obtained are discussed and compared with the available literature.
