  Low Cost Concrete Block: A Sustainable Solution to Construction Industry

  By Vaishali Sahu, Prachi Sohoni

  Abstract: In India, construction industry is growing at a fast pace. To fulfill the demand of infrastructure sector, large amounts of building materials are required. As major portion of this construction material is taken by conventional materials; the cost is increasing. At the same time, this is also responsible for depletion of the resources. An effort has been made to give an alternative solution to both the problems. In the present …

  Strength Studies of Fly Ash Stabilized with Lime and Gypsum

  By Vaishali Sahu, Amit Srivastava

  Abstract: An experimental study was conducted to investigate the performance of a composite derived from stabilizing fly ash with lime and gypsum. The initial part of the study examines the effect of lime (4%, 8%, and 12% by mass of dry fly ash) on compaction (in terms of density/moisture relationship) and unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of fly ash. Further the effect of adding small amount of gypsum (1%) on strength was …
