Abstract

In the present study, experimental program is carried out to study the effect of sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) on the various properties of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). To do so, various paste specimens were cast with OPC replaced by 10%, and 20% SCBA by weight of cement. The studied factors include compressive strength, apparent porosity, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and sorptivity. To quantify the SCBA potential, the results of OPC replaced SCBA specimens were compared than that of the OPC specimen. From the results, at the higher percentage replacement of SCBA, compressive strength was found to reduce significantly. Moreover, results of an ultrasonic pulse velocity tests revealed that the quality of paste specimen reduces with the increase in percentage replacement of SCBA,
