Experimental Study on Partial Replacement of Cement by PROSOPIS JULIFLORA in Concrete

Abstract

In recent days, the prosopisjuliflora (seemaikaruvelam) develops in a haphazard way in our lands and acts as a major environmental pollutant. In this project our main objective is to study the influence of partial replacement of cement with prosopisjuliflora ash, and to compare it with the compressive strength and workability of ordinary M20 concrete. We are also trying to replace the various percentages like 10%, 15%, and 20% of prosopisjuliflora ash against cement to study the tendency of the Characteristic strength of concrete.
