A Review - Effect on Strength and Durability Properties of Cement Mortar Replaced By Metakaolin and Flyash as Fine Aggregate

Abstract

In this paper, the effect of metakaolin and fly ash on strength and durability properties of cement mortar was investigated. Different types of replacement of metakaolin and flyash (0%, 8%, 16%, and 24%) in cement of cement mortar of grade 1:3 and curing with sea water. Strength and durability properties such as compressive strength and acid resistivity were evaluated for all the mixes of cement mortar. Results also show that the strength properties of cement mortar has improved having 12% fly ash and 12% metakaolin replacement is responsible for minor strength loss but leads to outstanding durability improvement of the cement mortar found to be low resistance to acid attack.
