Abstract:
These days concrete is the most commonly used material in the field of construction. Due to the rapid growth of construction industry the demand for concrete is increasing considerably. Fly ash,a waste materialgenerated bythermal power plants during the combustion of crushed coal. Thus the use of fly ash would result in reduction of the cost of materials in construction and the reduction of greenhouse gas emission.In this present study fly ash are partially replaced for cement. PPC cement was replaced by fly ash in rang of 10% to 50% at an interval of 10% with 0.45% and .47% of water cement ratio respectively in mix design M25 (1:2.05:3.75).Concrete specimens at different replacement level of PPC were cast and tested for workability at fresh stage and for compressive strength after 7, 28 and 56 days curing. Result showed that PPC can be replaced up to 40% by fly ash without considerable change in compressive strength.
