Effect of MIRHA and Fly Ash in Ductile Self-Compacting Concrete on Abrasion and Impact Performance

Abstract:

The benefits of Microwave Incinerated Rice Husk Ash (MIRHA) as partial cement replacement materials in DSCC mixes has led to the research on the possibilities of combining both MIRHA and fly ash as an addition in DSCC replacing up to 20% of cement volume whilst maintaining satisfactory properties. The addition of both materials can improve concrete properties and reduce the cost of DSCC production. These supplementary cementitious materials are expected to give positive effects on the concrete abrasion and impact resistance. The incorporations of both MIRHA and fly ash in DSCC as cement replacement materials are considered as a new type of concrete. Therefore, it is important to have a complete knowledge on the behaviour of the composite material when being subjected to repetitive dynamic loading. The test results showed that MIRHA and fly ash combination in DSCC improved both abrasion and impact resistance of DSCC compared to reference specimens.
