Abstract
The correlation between type and quantity of glassy phase and chemical composition of fly ash has been reviewed. A simplified model based on above has been proposed for assessment of pozzolanic reactivity of fly ash in terms of compressive strength of fly ash cement mortar. The model is fitted for 10%, 20%, 35% and 50% of fly ash replacement and for 28, 91 and 365 days of curing period using a least squares technique. The model is found to predict well for more than 20% fly ash replacement. The correlation coefficient ( R 2) between predicted and experimental values is maximum for 50% replacement. The model fit for 10% replacement of fly ash is poor.
