Abstract
Concrete is the most widely used
construction material today. This paper deals with the
utilization of sugar cane bagasse ash in cement concrete.
The sugar cane bagasse ash waste product is used as a
partial replacement to cement. It deals with M25 grade
concrete and the production (extent) to which bagasse ash
can be used. For this three trail mixes with varying
proportions of sugar cane bagasse ash has been choose
and the strength results of cubes after 1 day,7day and
28days cylinders strength after 28 days and the prisms
strength after 28 days have been reported and presented
graphically. Based on the above mentioned test results, bar
charts were drawn and the results are shown graphically
and finally conclusions were shown.
