Description
Summary:This paper presents the findings of a study done on the properties of open-heap burned, burned, unground Rice Hull Ash as a partial cement substitute and pozzolanic materials. The study specifically measured the effect on the compressive and tensile strength of concrete by varying the RHA content of the pre-determined mix design. The study also observed the acid resistance of the mix that brought about the optimum performance. Presented herewith are the results of the experiments done in connection of this study, as well as analysis of the said data, and all pertinent data connected to the production of RHA concrete.
