An experimental investigation on concrete using lignite ash and crusher dust

Civil Engineering

This project work describes the investigation on concrete by using lignite ash and crusher dust. The experimental investigation presents the development of concrete containing lignite ash in various percentages of 10%, 20% and 30%. Concrete cube were cast and cured in ages of 7, 14 and 28 days. Compressive and flexural strength as part of mechanical properties were determined. These properties were compared with that of normal concrete. It was concluded from this investigation that lignite ash can be substituted in place of cement and crusher dust can be replace of sand in the production of concrete. This mineral admixture are adding to the concrete for the uses of improving strength and low cement quantity for use of concrete.
