Durability Study of Cement Mortar Replaced By Bottom Ash and Green Sand as a Fine Aggregate
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
The main purpose of this paper is to study the durability of cement mortar by using the bottom ash and the green sand to replace natural fine aggregate in the cement mortar products. In this study use high water cement ratio to conduct the experiment, in which the weight ratio of water/cement is 0.55 with the superplasticers 2.5%. The experiment uses bottom ashfine aggregates, which passes through 4.75mm sieve, and natural sand of the same size as the aggregate. The study shows that, based on the 1:3 cement/aggregate weight ratio while the bottom ash and the green sand is to be varied in proportion 10%, 20%, 30% by its weight of natural fine aggregates in cement mortar. Mortar compressive strength, split tensile strength, porosity, water absorption studies will be carried out and the best combination is to be selected based on the mortar strength
