The usage of industrial and agricultural wastes for building materials production plays an important role to improve the environment and economy by preserving nature materials and land resources, reducing land, water and air pollution as well as organizing and storing waste costs. This study mainly focuses on mathematical modeling dependence of the compressive strength of high performance concrete (HPC) at the ages of 3, 7 and 28 days on the amount of rice husk ash (RHA) and fly ash (FA), which are added to the concrete mixtures by using the Central composite rotatable design. The result of this study provides the second-order regression equation of objective function, the images of the surface expression and the corresponding contours of the objective function of the regression equation, as the optimal points of HPC compressive strength. These objective functions, which are the compressive strength values of HPC at the ages of 3, 7 and 28 days, depend on two input variables as: x1 (amount of RHA) and x2 (amount of FA). The Maple 13 program, solving the second-order regression equation, determines the optimum composition of the concrete mixture for obtaining high performance concrete and calculates the maximum value of the HPC compressive strength at the ages of 28 days. The results containMaxR28HPC = 76.716 MPa when RHA = 0.1251 and FA = 0.3119 by mass of Portland cement.

Tests were carried out on the properties of Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) by partially or completely replacing Silica Fume (SF) by Low-temperature Rice Husk Ash (L-RHA) .The results show that the activity and adsorptive capacity of L-RHA is greater than SF; The compressive strength of UHPC is increased by both the filling effect and the secondary hydration effect for L-RHA, but only by the filling effect for SF. However, more than 10% dosage of L-RHA or SF reduces the early compressive strength of UHPC. The compressive strength of UHPC with two blends of L-RHA and SF with less than 10% dosage of each ingredient is higher than the one with only a blend of ingredient, L-RHA or SF.

This paper describes the development of statistical models to predict strength and slump of rice husk ash (RHA) incorporated high-performance concrete (HPC). Sixty samples of RHA incorporated HPC mixes having compressive strength range of 42–92 MPa and slump range of 170–245 mm were prepared and tested in the laboratory. These experimental data of sixty RHA incorporated HPC mixes were used to develop two models. Six variables namely water-to-binder ratio, cement content, RHA content, fine aggregate content, coarse aggregate content and superplasticizer content were selected to develop the models and ultimately to predict strength and slump of RHA incorporated HPC. The models were developed by regression analysis. Additional five HPC mixes were prepared with the same ingredients and tested under the same testing conditions to verify the ability of the proposed models to predict the responses. The results of the prediction of the models showed good agreement with the experimental data. Thus the developed models can be used to predict slump and 28-day compressive strength of RHA incorporated HPC. The research demonstrated that strength and slump of HPC could be successfully modeled using statistical analysis.

This study investigates about the behaviour of high performance concrete produced with multi component composite cements. Here, the cement is partially replaced with certain mineral admixtures. The mineral admixture used in the study are fly ash, rice husk ash, silica fume and ground granulated blast furnace slag in various percentages up to 50%. The mix proportion for fly ash and rice husk ash are kept constant thought the study as 25% and 7.5% respectively. The Mechanical properties such as (Compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity), Durability tests (Acid test, Sorptivity), permeability test and Non Destructive test are performed on M40 grade concrete cube material property, cylinder and prism. The outcomes were analyzed with the controlled mix. The results shown that the M3 mix ( 50% cement, 25% fly ash, 7.5% RHA,7.5 % silica fume and 10 % GGBS) obtained optimum strength, durability and other properties when analyzed with the other mixes.

Materials Used

This research studies the potential for using waste ash from industrial and agricultural by-products as a pozzolanic material. Classified fly ash (FA) and ground rice husk ash (RA) were the materials used. Water requirement, compressive strength and porosity of cement mortar were investigated. Test results indicated that FA and RA (waste ash) have a high potential to be used as a good pozzolanic material. The water requirement of mortar mix decreases with the increases in fly ash content. For ground rice husk ash (RA), the water requirement of mortar mix increases with the increases in rice husk ash content. In addition, the reduction in porosity was associated with the increase in compressive strength.

The Cost

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is a kind of high-tech cementitious material with superb mechanical and durability properties compared to other types of concrete. However, due to the high content of cement and silica fume used, the cost and environmental impact of UHPC is considerably higher than conventional concrete. For this reason, several efforts around the world have been made to develop UHPC with greener and less expensive local pozzolans. This study aimed to design and produce UHPC using local fly ash available in Colombia. A numerical optimization, based on Design of Experiments (DoE) and multi-objective criteria, was performed to obtain a mixture with the proper flow and highest compressive strength, while simultaneously having the minimum content of cement. The results showed that, despite the low quality of local fly ashes in Colombia, compressive strength values of 150 MPa without any heat treatment can be achieved.

Chemical Activator

The increasing demand and consumption of cement have necessitated the use of slag, fly ash, rice husk ash (RHA), and so forth as a supplement of cement in concrete construction. The aim of the study is to develop a zero-cement binder (Z-Cem) using slag, fly ash, and RHA combined with chemical activator. NaOH, Ca(OH)2, and KOH were used in varying weights and molar concentrations. Z-Cem was tested for its consistency, setting time, flow, compressive strength, XRD, SEM, and FTIR. The consistency and setting time of the Z-Cem paste increase with increasing RHA content. The Z-Cem mortar requires more superplasticizer to maintain a constant flow of110±5% compared with OPC. The compressive strength of the Z-Cem mortar is significantly influenced by the amounts, types, and molar concentration of the activators. The Z-Cem mortar achieves a compressive strength of 42–44 MPa at 28 days with 5% NaOH or at 2.5 molar concentrations. The FTIR results reveal that molecules in the Z-Cem mortar have a silica-hydrate (Si-H) bond with sodium or other inorganic metals (i.e., sodium/calcium-silica-hydrate-alumina gel). Therefore, Z-Cem could be developed using the aforementioned materials with the chemical activator.

Cement Replacement

The paper describes an experimental program focused on the research of high performance concrete with partial replacement of cement by fly ash. Four mixtures were investigated: reference mixture and mixtures with 10 %, 20 % and 30 % cement weight replaced by fly ash. In the first stage, the effect of cement replacement was observed. The second phase aimed at the influence of homogenization process for the selected 30% replacement on concrete properties. The analysis of macroscopic properties followed compressive strength, elastic modulus and depth of penetration of water under pressure. Microscopic analysis concentrated on the study of elastic modulus, porosity and mineralogical composition of cement matrix using scanning electron microscopy, spectral analysis and nanoindentation. The macroscopic results showed that the replacement of cement by fly ash notably improved compressive strength of concrete and significantly decreased the depth of penetration of water under pressure, while the improvement rate increased with increasing cement replacement (strength improved by 18 %, depth of penetration by 95 % at 30% replacement). Static elastic modulus was practically unaffected. Microscopic investigation showed impact of fly ash on both structure and phase mechanical performance of the material.
