Ductile self-compacting concrete (DSCC) is one of the advanced materials which combines self-compacting abilities and ductility to address the current industry problems. As the fly ash and microwave incinerated rice husk ash (MIRHA) are beneficial to the properties of concrete, it has led to a research on the effects of ternary blends of MIRHA, fly ash and cement in DSCC. Up to 20% of cement in DSCC was replaced with MIRHA and fly ash with 10% by weight respectively whilst maintaining satisfactory self-compacting abilities. The effects of MIRHA and fly ash on mechanical strength and chloride penetration depth of DSCC were determined. The control DSCC mix was compared with the DSCC mix with MIRHA and fly ash. The results shown that substitution of MIRHA and fly ash into DSCC gave positive effects, it improved the mechanical properties and chloride permeability.

In this study, concrete prisms were made with three mineral admixtures: fly ash, blast furnace slag or silica fume and with three water-to-binder ratios(w/b). Chloride penetration was measured by the rapid chloride permeability test (RCPT)-ASTM C1202, 150-days ponding test and alternate wetting and drying test by cyclic loading with salt solution and oven drying, and the results by the three test methods were compared. This paper discussed the effects of mineral admixtures and w/b on the concrete chloride permeability. Blending concrete with blast furnace slag, fly ash or silica fume was beneficial with regard to the resistance against chloride ion penetration. Concrete specimens with lower w/b showed lower chloride permeability.

Self-compacting concrete is one of 'the most revolutionar development' in concrete research; this concrete is able to flow and to fill the most restacted places of the form work without vibration. There are several methods for testing it's properties in the fresh state: the most frequently used are slum-flow test, L-box and V-funnel. This work presents properties of self-compacting concrete, mixed with different types additives: fly ash, silica fume, hydraulic lime and a mixture of fly ash and hydraulic lime.

This paper discusses on Rapid Chloride Permeability Test investigations on penetration of chloride ions included with replacement of cement by flyash material. By weigth of cement, the fly ash content is replaced from 0% to 60%. Concrete mixes with different binder content varies from 350, 400 and 450 kg/m3 were proportioned with different water binder(w/b) ratios = 0.4, 0.45 and 0.50. Specimens were casted and tested for 28 days. For all the combinations, RCPT was carried out and the charge passed through the specimens was noted. Rapid Chloride Permeability Test value of concrete without fly ash was found to be more than the concrete with fly ash. The Rapid Chloride Permeability Test values are found to be decreased if the percentage of flyash increases. The reason could be the pozzolanic reaction products (CSH) fill the pores between the cement pastes and cause a denser concrete matrix, resulting in better durability. Hence, it can be suggested that the fly ash concrete up to 50% replacement can be used for variety of applications.
