Red brick is a building element used in the construction of buildings and made of clay plus water with or without material mixture of other materials. Fly ash and rice husk ash contain silica. Silica is a material that has the nature of pozzolan which can increase the compressive strength of the brick when mixed with the soil. This study aims to determine the effect of the addition of fly ash and rice husk ash (ASP) to the value of compressive strength of clay brick. The process of making the test specimen follows the procedure in the brick factory.Variations of specimens made were normal bricks and bricks with the addition of fly ashand rice husk ash (ASP) used were 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% to the weight of clay.The number of test specimens of each percentage of fly ash and rice husk ash (ASP) as much as 12 specimens. The method of testing of red brick strength is referred to SNI 15-20942000. The result of the research shows that the compressive strength of the clay brick has decreased from normal clay brick by 38,97 kg/cm². The biggest decrease in compressive strength value obtaines at clay brick with 30% ashes (48,04%) and the smallest decreased obtaines at clay brick compressive strength in clay brick with 5% ash (5,98%). The decrease of the compressive strength is influenced by the amount of ash addition, water quantity and moisture content.

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 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.

The aim of this work is to study the feasibility of preparation of fly ash based geopolymer using sodium water glass from agricultural waste as alternative activators. Rice husk ash and bagasse ash were used as raw materials for producing sodium water glass solution. The sodium water glass were produced by mixing rice husk ash and bagasse ash with NaOH in ball mill and boiling. The prepared sodium water glass were analyzed and used in geopolymer preparation process. The geopolymer paste were prepared by adding the obtained water glass and NaOH with fly ash. After cured at ambient temperature for 7 days, mechanical properties were investigated. Bonding and phases of the geopolymer were also characterized. The geopolymer from rice husk ash presented highest compressive strength about 23 MPa while the greatest for bagasse ash was about 16 MPa.

Geopolymer is a greener alternative cement produced from the reaction of pozzolans and strong alkali solutions. Generally, the cement industry is one of largest producers of CO2that caused global warming. For geopolymer mortar usage, Portland cement is not utilized at all. In this research, geopolymer mortars were prepared by mixing metakaolin, various wastes (fly ash, bagasse ash and rice husk ash) varied as 80:20, 50:50 and 20:80, 15M NaOH, Na2SiO3and sand. The influence of various parameters such as metakaolin to ashes ratios and pozzolans to alkali ratios on engineering properties of metakaolin blended wastes geopolymer mortar were studied. Compressive strength tests were carried out on 25 x 25 x 25 mm3cube geopolymer mortar specimens at 7, 14, 21, 28 and 91 air curing days. Physical and chemical properties were also investigated at the same times. The test results revealed that the highest compressive strength was 20% metakaolin - 80% fly ash geopolymer mortar. When the curing times increases, the compressive strength of geopolymer mortar also increases. The mixing of metakaolin and bagasse ash/rice husk ash presented lower compressive strength but higher water absorption and porosity. For FTIR results, Si-O, Al-O and Si-O-Na+were found. Moreover, the geopolymer mortar could easily plastered on the wall.

Geopolymer is an aluminosilicate material, synthesized from source materials rich in silica and alumina and alkali solution. This product provides similar strength to Portland cement concrete. Geopolymer exhibits a wide variety of properties and characteristics, including high compressive strength, low shrinkage, acid resistance, fire resistance and low thermal conductivity. In term of acid resistance, acid rain is an important consideration due to global warming. Structures deteriorate as a result of persistence contact with acid rain with of pH less than 5. Thus, this research aims to improve acid resistance of fly ash-NaOH geopolymer mortars by incorporating rice husk ash (RHA). Artificial acid rain solution was prepared by mixing nitric acid and sulfuric acid at the ratio of 70:30 v/v. The geopolymer mortars were immersed in 5% nitric acid, 5% sulfuric acid, and 5% synthetic acid rain solutions for 36 weeks. The evaluations of its resistance to acid solution was investigated with surface corrosion, compressive strength, and microstructure. The results showed that the incorporation of RHA improved the acid rain resistance of geopolymer mortar through pore refinement and increase in strength. The mortar with fly ash to RHA ratio of 90:10 provided the highest compressive strength and good resistance to acid rain.

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the influence of mineral additives i.e. metakaolin, silica fume, rice ash and fly ash incorporating with nanocarbontubes mortar composites. The effects on compressive strength at 28 days were also discussed and presented. Cement content of 500 kg/m3, water/cement ratio of 0.6 and aggregate/cement ratio of 2.75 were adopted for the mix propotion. 1%, 3% and 5% of nanocarbontubes in mortar were combined with 15% of mineral additives. The results show that mixtures of nanocarbontubes with 15% of metakaolin produce better strength compared to normal mortar. Meanwhile with addition of fly ash and rice husk ash the strength were decreased. The electrical resistance for all mixes at 28 days were also discussed and presented. The higher percentages of nanocarbon with addition of all mineral additives resulted in lower electrical resistance properties
