INVESTIGATION ON PROPERTIES OF RICE HUSK ASH AND ITS USES AS CEMENT REPLACEMENT MATERIAL
Harsh Mittal,Jaspreet Singh Gill,Harish Kumar
Abstract
In this study, Husk Ash (RHA), which was used to replace some of the cement, is tested together with the mechanical and durability characteristics of interlocking concrete paving blocks. When RHA is replaced with cement in a percentage of up to 10%, the compressive strength of concrete increases by 13%, and its flexural strength increases by up to 19% compared to that of a controlled mix.
