Portland cement is a relatively expensive type of cement when used on constructions requiring simple requirements. Local material utilization using ash fragments of coral reefs and rice husk ash is one of the solutions. The objectives of this study is to determine the value of concrete compressive strength in each variation of cement replacement used were 2.5%, 5%, 7.5% and 10%, each variation consists of 70% ash fragment of coral reefs and 30% rice husk ash from the volume of cement used. The cube specimen with a size of (15x15x15) cm as many as 20 specimen were prepared. Concrete mixture according to SNI 03-2834-2000 used 0.5 cement water ratio and 60-100 mm of slump. The result of the compressive strength of concrete variation every percentage increase has increased and decreased from the result of the normal concrete compressive strength of 368.24 kg/cm2. Maximum increase occurred in the concrete compressive strength variation 7.5% of 384.76 kg/cm2 and decreased on the concrete compressive strength variation 10% of 367.40 kg/cm2.

The production of rice is significant worldwide; the husk produced is generally used as a combustible material for the preparation of paddies, delivering energy through direct combustion as well as by gasifying. Annually, 7.4 million tons of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) is produced and poses an incredible danger to the environment, harming the land and the encompassing zone where it is unloaded. In the transformation of rice husk to ash, the ignition cycle eliminates the natural products, leaving silica-rich remains. These silica-rich remains have proven to have potential to be utilized in concrete as a limited substitution of cement to enhance the concrete compressive strength. Steel fibers’ incorporation increases the concrete tensile strength, balances out concrete samples, and changes their brittle behavior to a more ductile response. In the current study, the influence of various doses of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) used in concrete in the presence and absence of steel fibers and concrete performance has been examined. A total of nine mixes have been designed: one was a control, four were without steel fibers containing only RHA, and the last four mixed RHA with steel fibers from 0.5 to 2%. Tests with 5, 10, 15, and 20% percentages of RHA replacing the concrete have been targeted. Results have been compared with the reference samples and the reasonability of adding Rice Husk Ash to concrete has been studied. From the results, it was noted that about 10% of cement might be replaced with Rice Husk Ash mixed in with steel fibers with almost equal compressive strength. Replacing more than 15% of cement with RHA will produce concrete with a low performance in terms of strength and durability.

The use of concrete as the main material in the construction does not mean it has no weaknesses. The brittle, low-density concrete properties make it collapse unexpectedly. In this work, a concrete innovation was performed to increase the compressive strength by the addition of rice husk ash as cement substitution that contains 92.31% of SiO2 and by the addition of banana tree bark. The proportion of rice husk ash used was obtained from preliminary tests to determine the proportion of rice husk ash by 5%, 7%, 10%, 12% and 15% of the cement’s weight. The result of the proportion which yielded the optimum concrete compressive strength by 24.4 MPa in the proportion of rice husk ash by 7%, then was made with the same ash content with banana tree bark fiber variation 0%; 1.5%; 2% and 3%. The Result of the test concluded that the addition of banana tree bark fiber can decrease the compressive strength and tensile strength of concrete because it is caused by the fibers that make hard concrete become solid. However, for all proportions of fiber, it still qualifies as the minimum tensile strength to be achieved i.e. 8% of the compressive strength of the plan.

Abstract The effect of RHA on Compressive Strength as well as other parameters like Consistency and Rheological properties etc. on Class G cement slurry is studied. The following additives were used; Rice Husk Ash (for Compressive Strength), Guinea Corn Husk Ash (Retarder) and other liquid additives which are fluid Loss Additive, Antifoam, Dispersant, Retarder and Water in the formulation of the cement slurry. This research is a comparative analysis based on experimental study on the effectiveness of the various additives on the cement slurry using pure Class G cement slurry combined with all liquid additives as a control. At a Bottomhole Circulating Temperature of 140°C, the Compressive Strength tests carried out on the slurry samples showed that the strength of the concrete increases as the concentration of the RHA increases with time of curing, also the compressive strength started to increase. The best Compressive Strength result was obtained with the percentages of cement replaced by 13.01% RHA. The strength showed impressive increase with time, with highest compressive strength encountered in 24 hours. The Thickening Time of the set Cement Slurry was considered using Class G cement and different percentage of RHA. The final Thickening Time decreases with increase in Rice Husk Ash. Decrease in the setting time was noticeable from 1.87 hrs (at 13.01% RHA) from 40bc to 100 bc. At BHST of 700°C increasing the ash concentration resulted in decrease in the Plastic Viscosities (PV) and increase in the Yield Points of the slurries. The results indicate that the slurries formulated using this ash has viscosities which are within the recommended values showing it is desirable to pump such slurry. For both 124°C and Bottom Hole Pressure of 7700psi the amount of fluid loss increases as the percentage of RHA added increases but it is below 50cp which is acceptable.

In this study, rice husk ash (RHA) was explored as a strength enhancer for mortars containing waste rubber. The effects of RHA on the flow, mechanical strength, chloride resistance, and capillary absorption of rubber mortar were investigated by substituting up to 20% cement with RHA. The experimental results showed that the incorporation of rubber into mortar could be safely achieved by adding RHA as a cement substitute by up to 20% without compromising the compressive strength of mortar. Moreover, the RHA also exerted positive effects on the enhancement of the chloride resistance as well as the capillary absorption of rubber mortars, for which 15% RHA was found to be the optimal dosage.

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.

This paper describes the experimental investigation carried out to develop the geopolymer concrete based on alkali-activated rice husk ash (RHA) by sodium hydroxide with sodium silicate. Effect on method of curing and concentration of NaOH on compressive strength as well as the optimum mix proportion of geopolymer mortar was investigated. It is possible to achieve compressive strengths of 31 N/mm2and 45 N/mm2, respectively for the 10 M alkali-activated geopolymer mortar after 7 and 28 days of casting when cured for 24 hours at 60°C. Results indicated that the increase in curing period and concentration of alkali activator increased the compressive strength. Durability studies were carried out in acid and sulfate media such as H2SO4, HCl, Na2SO4, and MgSO4environments and found that geopolymer concrete showed very less weight loss when compared to steam-cured mortar specimens. In addition, fluorescent optical microscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies have shown the formation of new peaks and enhanced the polymerization reaction which is responsible for strength development and hence RHA has great potential as a substitute for ordinary Portland cement concrete.

This paper presents the experimental results of the production of Nano-SiO2 (NS) from rice husk ash (RHA) and the engineering properties of High Strength Concrete (HSC) containing various NS contents. Firstly, the mesoporous silica nanoparticles were effectively modulated from RHA using NaOH solution, and subsequently precipitated with HCl solution until the pH value reached 3. The optimum synthesis for the manufacture of SiO2 nanoparticles in the weight ratio of RHA/NaOH was 1:2.4, and the product was calcined at 550 °C for 2 h. The EDX, XRD, SEM, TEM, FT-IR, and BET techniques were used to characterize the NS products. Results revealed that the characteristics of the obtained NS were satisfactory for civil engineering materials. Secondly, the HSC was manufactured with the aforementioned NS contents. NS particles were added to HSC at various replacements of 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5% by the mass of the binder. The water-to-binder ratio was remained at 0.3 for all mixes. The specimens were cured for 3, 7, 28, 25 days under 25 ± 2 °C and a relative humidity of 95% before testing compressive and flexural strengths. Chloride ion permeability was investigated at 28 and 56 days. Results indicated that the addition of NS dramatically enhanced compressive strength, flexural strength, chloride ion resistance, and reduced chloride ion permeability compared to control concrete. The optimal NS content was found at 1.5%, which yielded the highest strength and lowest chloride ion permeability. Next, the development of flexural and compressive strengths with an age curing of 3–28 days can be analytically described by a logarithmic equation with R2 ≥ 0.74. The ACI code was used, and the compressive strength at t-day was determined based on 28 days with R2 ≥ 0.95. The study is expected to solve the redundancy of waste RHA in southern Vietnam by making RHA a helpful additive when producing high-strength concrete and contributing meaningfully to a sustainable environment.
