Abstract

Abstract

Concrete is an absolutely effective and essential construction material used all over the world because of it advantageous properties. But the increase in cost of cement and environmental pollution caused by cement manufacturing not only increase the cost of construction but also poses a serious threat to the environment. The utilization of industrial and agricultural waste produced by their processes has been used reduce waste for making economic, environmental, and technical concrete construction. Cement concrete having its self-limitations that are weak in tension, has limited amount ductility and is little resistance for cracking. The entire construction industry is in search of suitable and effective alternative SCM Of late, it is identified that some industrial waste products like Rise Husk ash, Fly ash, GGBS, Bagasse ash, silica fume etc. which are the byproduct of industries etc. are having some siliceous and cementations properties which is more advantageous to increases some of the properties of concrete as well as effective in reducing the cost of construction. In this paper, Bagasse ash has been partially replaced in the ratio of 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% by weight of cement in concrete. slump cone test were undertaken as well as hardened concrete tests like compressive strength for 7 and 28 days was obtained. The result shows that the compressive strength, water absorption and sorptivity results improves as cement is replaced by bagasse ash.
