Permeable concrete is a special concrete which consists of cement, coarse aggregate and water. Due to rapid growth of globalization and urbanization, the construction of concrete roads increasing day by day which leads to decrease in percolation of storm water, surface runoff occurring to the decrease in ground water table. In previous concrete, single sized aggregate is used to maintain the void ratio in the concrete. The cement paste is bonded with aggregate with a void ratio of 20%. In this investigation, concrete of M20 grade with water cement ratio of 0.38 is used. The properties of concrete were increased by using Rice husk ash and Bagasse ash in changed percentages (10%, 20%, 30%) by weight of cement and with the combination of rice husk ash and bagasse ash 10% (5%RA + 5%BA), 20%(10%RA+10%BA), 30%(15%RA+15%BA) are used. The compressive strength of cubes, split tensile of cylinders are casted, tested after 7 days and 28 days. After testing, the optimum percentages of replacement of admixtures are found in the Permeable concrete. Therefore the strength and durability properties of permeable concrete with the addition of bagasse ash and rice husk ash with partial replacement of cement are compared with conventional concrete.

The biggest disadvantage of conventional concrete is brittle and hard, in addition, its durability is not high. The low durability of concrete is due to the presence of calcium hydroxide at the intersection of coarse aggregate particles and hard cement powder. The introduction of coconut fiber and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) fibers into the concrete to improve the durability and flexibility of the concrete. In addition, the article also considers the effects of other additives such as rice husk ash, silica fume to study the performance of the structure as well as its durability when joining concrete mixes to create flexible concrete movable and more flexible than conventional concrete.


The objectives of this work is effect of Rice husk ash (AWM) in self-compaction concrete (SCR) in order to increase in strength and a better bonding between aggregate and cement paste. SCR had an improvement over conventional concrete so that it can be placed easily without vibration or mechanical consolidation. The properties of SCR have been studied in several researches due to its importance and ability to solve the problems of concrete mix. AWM was used to substitute cement in stepped concentration of 0 %, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and used to gain characteristic CS of M40 grade concrete mix. It is cured normal water and sulphuric acid solution (H2SO4 ) in for different ages (7days, 28days and 60days) and the strengths were determined. Sulphuric acid used in the percentages of 0%, 1%, 3%, 5%.

Now days, the waste rice husk from rice mill, marble powder from tile industry and fly ash from steam power plant are necessary to utilize as partial replacement of cement for concrete production. Large scale production of cement required consumption of raw materials and energy as well as emissions to air which posse’s environmental threat in various areas of country. Apart from the environmental threat, there still exists the problem of shortage in many areas. Therefore, substitute material for concrete needs to be considered. The paper aims to analyze the compressive strength of concrete cubes and flexural strength of concrete beams made from partially replaced cement, sand, and coarse aggregate. This research study adopted in laboratory on 48 total specimens of grade M25 concrete cubes of size 150x150x150mm and concrte beams of size 100x100x500mm were casted. Out of the 48 concrete specimens cast, 6 each were made out 10%, 20%, and 30 % replacement of fly ash, rice husk ash and marble powder to cement in concrete. It was found that the compressive strength and flexural strength of concrete made from the mixture of 20 % partially replaced cement, sand and coarse aggregate was similar than the concrete made from without replaced cement , sand and coarse aggregate.

In present day scenario, concrete construction is rapidly increasing for different uses and aspects irrespective of the economy and its usage. Due to this imbalanced usage of economy, scarcity of raw materials increasing day by day and environment is getting affected due to manufacturing of cement. This study has been done how to reduce environmental pollution by using different kind of bi product materials in replacement to conventional concrete, which is made up of OPC. The cement can be replaced with fly ash; GGBS, rice husk ash etc, aggregates are being partially replaced with recycled aggregates which come from demolished structures and alkaline liquids such as sodium silicates and sodium hydroxide can be used in concrete, which is called geopolymer concrete. Literature review has been carried out to find the optimum content of aggregates to be replaced and the flexure behavior of the beams is being evaluated. From the literature study, it has been identified that the optimum compressive strength is achieved at 30% replacement of recycled aggregate and ductility natures of both Geopolymer and conventional concrete beams are almost similar.

This research assessed the effect of Nigerian rice husk ash (RHA) and calcium chloride (CaCl2) as partial replacement of cement in concrete grade 20. Rice husk ash (RHA) is obtained by combustion of rice husk in a controlled temperature. The replacement of OPC with rice husk ash (RHA) were 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. 1% of Calcium Chloride was blended with OPC/RHA in all the test specimens except from control mix. Concrete cubes of sizes 150mm x 150mm x 150mm were cast and cured in water for 7, 14 and 28 days respectively. Slump test was conducted on fresh concrete while density test and compressive strength test were conducted on hardened concrete. The slump results revealed that the concrete becomes less workable (stiff) as percentage increases. The compressive strength result at 28 days revealed that 5%RHA/1%CaCl2 have the highest strength of 26.82N/mm2 while 20%RHA/1%CaCl2 have the lowest strength (21.48N/mm2). Integration of 5%RHA/1%CaCl2 and 10%RHA/1%CaCl2 as cement replacement will produce a concrete of higher compressive strength compared to conventional concrete in grade 20 concrete.

This study investigated the strength properties of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) concrete with shredded Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) bottles as coarse aggregate partial replacement. Concrete mix, 1:2:4 was designed for all specimens with w/c of 0.5. Samples were prepared and examined at deferent replacement levels of cement with RHA (5, 10 and 15%) using shredded PET bottles (5, 10 and 15%) as coarse aggregate replacement. Concrete without RHA and shredded PET bottles served as control. A total number of 90 concrete cubes and 20 flexural beams were used to examine the strength properties of produced concrete specimens at 28 days. Results revealed that both compressive and flexural strengths of RHA-concrete decreased as the amount of shredded PET bottles increased. The compressive strengths obtained were 20.65, 17.44, 16.53 and 15.87 N/mm2 while the flexural strengths were 10.49, 6.63, 6.59 and 5.72 N/mm2 for 0, 5, 10 and 15% replacement levels respectively. This class of concrete could be used to produce both plain and reinforced concrete of light weight aggregate.

Abstract The impact of the OPC on the environment is important as its production generates a large amount of CO2. In order to reduce the use of pure raw materials as resources, the use of industrial waste or secondary materials in construction sites for the production of cement and concrete has been encouraged. The volume of wastes generated worldwide has increased over the years due to the population, social and economic performance and social development. One of the most attractive options for waste management is to minimize waste and reuse the possibility of recycling. The cost of cement used in concrete works is increasing and unsatisfactory, but the demand for this material and other housing needs is rising, so it is important to find alternatives that can be used alone or in a partial replacement. In this research work several auxiliary cementitious ingredients such as metakaoline, GGBFS and Rice Husk Ash (RHA) were used to improve the strength properties of the conservative concrete. Metakaolin and GGBFS was used at a fixed percentage of 10 percent as fractional substitution of the OPC-43 grade cement, while the RHA was used at different percent ranging from 0 to 25 percent at an increment of 5 percent in each case as fractional substitution of the OPC-43 grade cement. Numerous examinations were executed so as to envisage the effect of these materials over the strength and engineering properties of the concrete. The test results conclude that the usage of the metakaolin, GGBFS and the RHA in combined form increased the strength and engineering properties of the conventional concrete up to a great extent. From the obtained test results it can be further concluded that the particle size of the supplementary cementitious materials plays a significant role in enhancing the internal micro-structure of the concrete and which further leads to the higher strength of the concrete. Also the main reason behind the advanced strength was the presence of the metakaolin and GGBFS in the concrete, whose chemical properties densifies the concrete and made the concrete more stable and promotes higher strength. Future work can also be done on the usage of several other supplementary cementitious materials at different other percentages so as to improve concrete properties.
