Strength of Portland Cement with Several Composition of Bottom Ash in Different Fineness with Curing Time of 28 Days

Abstract:

Concrete is produced increasingly worldwide and accounting 10-20% emission of carbon dioxide. The potential long term opposing cost of environmental effects need to recognize. Residue of coal combustion ashes especially bottom ash will use to develop reuse application. This study focused on compressive strength of several composition of bottom ash as cement replacement in mortar. Curing of cement mortar techniques and duration also plays an important role and effects on the strength. The objective of this research is to examine the compressive strength of bottom ash in Portland cement under various compositions and fineness of bottom ash.
