Abstract

Experimental Study on Mechanical Properties of Sintered Fly Ash Aggregate in Concrete

Highlights

  • In India the power sector depends on coal based thermal power station which produce a huge amount of fly ash approximately to be around 200 million tonnes annually

  • In addition using that sintered fly ash aggregate (SFAA) concrete were cast and it was tested for strength at various age

  • FRESH CONCRETE PROPERTIES The consistency of SFAA concrete has been measured by conducting a slump test in Concrete laboratory, In order to find the slump values of SFAA concrete with respect to increase percentage of sintered fly ash aggregate (SFAA)

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Loganathan (2013) Made On Investigaon On“Effective Utilization of High Volume Flyash with Light Weight Aggregate in Concrete for Construction Industry“ has studied the properties, such as compressive strength and tensile strengths of lightweight concrete containing fly ash aggregate. High Volume Fly ash Aggregate Concrete provided with cement replacement by 40% Fly ash by weight of total binder, resulted in reduced compressive, tensile and flexure strengths in the early days of hydration. Rajamane et al (2009) made a work “Studies on development of bonded fly ash aggregates for use as coarse aggregate in structural grade concretes “have reported that it is possible to produce coarse aggregates from fly ash by Pelletization techniques for use in structural grade concrete They studied the properties like bulk density, specific gravity, water absorption and aggregate crushing value. In the present work 53 grade cement is used for casting.The physical properties of cement are obtained by conducting following tests as per the IS a standard namely IS 1727:1967 and IS 4031(Part – 5):1988
