effect of cement replacement by silica fume and fly ash

It was found that the highestreplacementlevel of 40 % byfly ashand16 % by silica fume, simultaneously, i.e. a totalreplacement of cementto the extent of 56 % gave a 10 % increase in the 28-day compressive strength compared to that ofcontrol concrete.

The mixtures were prepared with 100% of a Type 10cement, a blendedsilica fume‘cementcontaining 8%silica fume, as well as a Class Ffly ashused at 20%replacement. All mixtures were made with a 0.41 water-to-cementitious materials ratio and had initial slump values of 230 + 5 mm (9.1 + 0.2 in.).

Feb 21, 2020· Also, apartial replacement of cementwithfly ashis desirable, and indeed essential due to a variety of technical, economical and ecological reasons. Researchers have reported thatsilica fume smaller in sizeand round shape fills the voids between thecoarser cement particleswhich may be otherwise occupied with water.

It was found that the highest replacement level of 40 % by fly ash and 16 % by silica fume, simultaneously, i.e. a total replacement of cement to the extent of 56 % gave a 10 % increase in the 28-day compressive strength compared to that of control concrete.

Fly ash, steel slag, and silica fume can increase the compressive strength which is much higher than design compressive strength of 15 MPa and with this mix design only use 51% of total cement ...

Jan 10, 2019· In this study, the effects of foam content as well as fly ash and silica fume inclusion on some physical and mechanical properties of foam concrete, subjected to various curing regimes, were researched. Totally, forty-five series of foam concrete mixtures were prepared at three replacement levels of fly ash and silica fume (0, 10 and 20%, by weight of cement), at three foam contents (0, 31 and 47%, …

Apr 08, 2017· 3. Substantial energy and cost savings can result when industrial by products are used as a partial replacement of cement. Such as Fly ash, Rice husk ash, High Reactive Met kaolin, silica fume are some of the pozzolanic materials which can be used in concrete as partial replacement of cement. Use of these pozzolanic materials as cement replacements and the results are encouraging. …

– Some concrete will set slowly when fly ash is used. Though this might be perceived as a disadvantage, it can actually be a benefit by reducing thermal stress . – Freeze-thaw durability may not be acceptable with the use of fly ash in concrete. – High-carbon fly ash materials tend to use more water and darken the concrete as well. Reaction of Silica fume in Concrete:

Home / Blog / Differences between fly ash, slag and silica fume Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCM) are added to concrete mixtures for various reasons including improving durability, decreasing permeability, aiding in pumpability and finishability, mitigating alkali reactivity and improving the overall hardened properties of concrete through hydraulic or pozzolanic activity or both.

A superplastisizer (1% by weightof cement) was added to this slurry which increased infiltration capacity of the slurry. To study theeffectofreplacement of cement by silica fumeon SIFCON, slurry was prepared by replacingcement by silica fumeat varying percentages like 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% by weightof cement.

Similarly, many industrial wastes likefly ash, ground granulated blast furnace slag, waste recycled product,cementkiln dust,silica fume, quarry dust, glass waste, rubber waste, red mud are generated nowadays due to growth in industrialization, increasing urbanization and rising standards of living due to technological innovation, which is ...

Jul 10, 2017· Likefly ash,silica fumewill typically decrease air content because of an increased amount of finer cementitious material in the mix. Setting time and strength development. When used at normalreplacementrates,silica fumehas littleeffecton setting time and little impact on heat of hydration.

Feb 17, 2014· Thereplacementlevels of OPCby Silica Fumewere 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%, 15% and 20% wherereplacementlevels of OPC byFly Ashwere 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30%. 1% super-plasticizer was used in all the test specimens for high performance (i.e., high workability at lower water-binder ratio) and to identify the sharpeffectsofSilica...

The commonly used SCM in the construction field areFly ash(FA),Silica fume(SF), and Ground granulated blast slag (GGBS). SCMs usually contribute to improvement of strength, permeability, workability, and durability. This paper discusses theeffectof SCMs on fresh and hardened properties of LightweightConcrete(LWC).
