EFFECT OF SUPERPLASTICZER ON SILICA FUME POZZOLANIC CEMENT

Effect of Partial Replacement of Cement by Silica Fume on Hardened Concrete

The use of Silica Fume (SF) in short period of time had one of the most dramatic impacts on the industry’s ability to routinely and commercially produce SF modified concrete of flowable in nature but yet remain cohesive, which in turn would develop both high early and high later-age strengths including resistant to aggressive environments. This paper features an experimental study on the nature...

Effect of Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) on Blended Cement (Fly Ash based) and Silica Fume Blended Cement and their Concretes

This paper presents the effect of Hydrochloric acid (HCl) on Blended Cement (Fly ash based(BC)) and Silica Fume Blended Cement(SFBC) and their concretes. The BC and SFBC and their concretes BCC and SFBCC produced with HCl dosage of 100, 150, 300, 500 and 900 mg/l added in deionised water. In addition to this control specimens were prepared with deionised water (without HCl) for comparison. The ...

Pozzolanic Reactivity of Silica Fume and Ground Rice Husk Ash as Reactive Silica in a Cementitious System: A Comparative Study

This study comparably assessed the pozzolanic effect of silica fume (SF) and ground rice husk ash (RHA) as supplementary cementing materials on the properties of blended cement pastes and concretes. A commonly commercial silica fume (SF) and locally-produced rice husk ash (RHA) samples with two finenesses (one with larger size than cement and the other with smaller size than cement) were used i...
