This experimental study investigates the compressive and split tensile strength of concrete using Portland pozzolana Cement and Sugarcane Bagasse Ash, silica fume, Quarry Dust and hence improving the strength of concrete. This work evaluates the performance of Sugarcane Bagasse Ash (BA) as a mineral admixture in concrete having the w/c ratio of 0.40. Concrete was replaced with BA 10%, 20% and 30% and silica fume 10% in common and also replaced with quarry dust for fine aggregate with 20% and 30%for M45 mix. The strength properties are compared with the above varying percentage and found that the mix of 10% BA and 30% M-Sand was comparably shown a better performance than the conventional concrete.
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.
