Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the durability performance of concrete that includes rice husk ash. Chloride diffusion coefficient obtained through a rapid chloride penetration test and depth of <TEX>$CO_2$</TEX> penetration obtained through a rapid carbonation test were used to evaluate latent durability. Durability characteristics for rice husk ash replacement and age were determined. Through the experiment, it was found that when the replacement ratio of rice husk ash was increased from 0% to 10%, the compressive strength of concrete containing rice husk ash was similar to that of concrete containing silica fume. This shows that the durability performance of concrete containing rice husk is excellent compared to other concretes containing admixtures.
