Rice straw is one of the best sources of huge waste where governments try to get rid of it because it is harmful to the environment as the irregular burning of it by farmer's causes a lot of damage to the environment. This study aims to find the optimal dose of the plasticizer with the optimal replacement ratio of the Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and the optimum dose of superplasticizer (B-V-F) with ordinary Portland cement (OPC) concrete and comparing their results. Following is noted all researches agreed on the inevitability of using RHA without using a plasticizer, but no one studied the effect of added different doses of the plasticizer to RHA concrete or in other hand added it to different replacement percentages of RHA. In this study RHA generated by burning rice husk straw in a huge iron container for 24 hours. To improve pozzolanic activity, RHA was grinding in a flour mill. After the preparation of the material, we studied its chemical composition and physical properties. the Program consists of seven groups (A, C, A.13, A.15, A.2, A.1, and B) The first group mix (A) contained four mixtures of) OPC (by weight replacement (0, 10%, 15%, and 20%) from RHA, the second group contains six mixtures with a constant slump (15±3) and water-cement ratio (0.51), The first mixture is the control mix without any added of RHA or plasticizer the second mixture did not contain RHA, but it contained a dose of the plasticizer, the remaining four mixtures contained OPC by weight replacement Assessment of Using an Optimal Dose of Superplasticizer with the Optimum Replacement of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) on Concrete Compressive Strength
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
