An Experimental Study on Partial Replacement of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) With Cement of Concrete

K. N. Lakshmaiah | D. Anitha ^[6]

Abstract: Concrete is the most commonly used construction material. The demand for concrete is increasing rapidly due to many constructional projects. As we are in modern era we cannot stop up to this, latest development is the admixtures. Lots of research is done on several admixtures which imparts strength, durability and workability to concrete. The paper is about one of such admixtures, Rice Husk Ash (RHA). Carbon free RHA is one of the bet admixtures which impart more strength to concrete than carbonized RHA. The paper differentiates carbon free RHA from carbonized RHA and gives its effects in field of construction and the main objective is to give a brief idea about a new way of processing RHA which leads to a boom in green construction.

Keywords: Rice Husk Ash RHA, Carbon Free Rice Husk Ash SRH, Compression and Tensile Strength
