Strength Properties of Concrete Palm Oil Fuel Ash

V. Suleman Ahamed | Dr. S. Siddiraju ^[8]

Abstract: Utilization of agro waste materials in the field of construction is increasing day by day, and is expected to increase with the advancement in tools and the desire to achieve economical and flawless material. In this study the properties of concrete with palm oil fuel ash is being studied. In this study cement is replaced with palm oil fuel ash with varying percentages of 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, 15 %, and 17.5 % of pofa with a constant water-cement ratio of 0.5. In this study workability properties of concrete like slump test were done and it has shown satisfactory results and strength property, flexural strength is done. At 15 % it has shown increase in strength.

Keywords: Palm oil fuel ash, workability, slump test, flexural strength
