The utilization of pulverized fly-ash as parial cement subtitute for concrete hollow blocks.

Fly ash is a waste byproduct coming from Power Plants throughout the country. Researchers had conducted experiments on the utilization of Fly ash as a partial replacement for cement in the production of concrete. At present, it is recommended that up to 20% replacement of fly ash be done on concrete...
