Strength Prediction and Optimization of Portland Limestone Cement Blended with Metakaolin and Rice Husk Ash
By Musa Muhammad Jibrin, Olumide Olu Olubajo, Umar Omeiza Aroke

Abstract: This study explores the effects of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and Metakaolin (MK) on the compressive strength of Portland Limestone Cement (PLC) mortar, aiming to promote sustainable construction materials. RHA and MK, derived from agricultural and industrial byproducts, serve as supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) that offer environmental benefits and improve cement properties. Using response surface methodology (RSM) and central composite design (CCD), the research optimized the ternary blend of PLC, …
