Concrete containing rice husk ash (RHA), subjected to seawater under wetting and drying cycles, was studied through an investigation of the compressive strength and microstructure of various types of blended cement paste. Five levels of cement replacement (0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% by weight) were s...
