Evaluation of Compressive Strength of Concrete Using Fly Ash, Silica Fume, and Steel Slag as Cementitious and Aggregate Replacements
Abstract: This study comprehensively investigates the influence of supplementary cementitious materials and industrial by-products—specifically fly ash, silica fume, and steel slag—on the compressive strength of concrete. The primary objective is to evaluate the impact of both individual and combined replacements of cement and aggregate components on concrete performance. The research analyzes how varying proportions of these materials affect the strength characteristics of the concrete mixtures. Experimental results demonstrate that increasing the …

Parametric Study of Fiber-Reinforced Concrete with Partial Cement Substitution Using Fly Ash and Rice Husk Ash
Abstract: This research aims to evaluate the impact of incorporating steel fibers [SF] and partially substituting cement with rice husk ash [RHA] and fly ash [FA] on the properties of concrete. SF were added in different volume fractions [0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75%, and 1.0%], combined with 10% RHA and 20% FA. Initially, the concrete mix contained 30% FA with no RHA, which was then adjusted to a mix of 15% FA …
