Abstract

The main objective of this research is to find that if there is any change in the strength of concrete even after the cement is partially replaced by various portions (10%, 20%, 30%) of Rice husk ash and Bagasse Ash respectively. Basically what sugarcane bagasse ash is the byproduct of sugar factories found after burning sugarcane bagasse which itself is found after the extraction of all economical sugar from sugarcane. In this study we will be finding out the compressive properties of cube, split tensile strength of cylinder and flexural strength of beam after 3 days, 7 days and 28 days.
