Development of Structural Concrete with Fly Ash

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper describes problems of using fly ash in concrete. Using fly ash produced during high temperature combustion in power plants as addition for concrete has been known since the 60s of the past century. The Standard EN 206 Concrete - Specification, performance, production and conformity characterizes high temperature combustion fly ash as an addition of the type II, i.e. active addition with pozzolanic properties. Use of fly ash as an active addition also enables partial replacement of cement. The paper solves the extent of cement which can be replaced with fly ash in this manner. Influence of addition of fly ash on consistency of concrete, development of compressive strength and elasticity modulus at the age of 7, 28, 60 and 90 days of concrete are observed.
