Abstract

This study looked at how using small or  large pieces of Rice Husk Ash and Waste Paper Sludge Ash  can affect how strong and how much the concrete shrinks  when it dries. When Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and Waste Paper  Sludge Ash (WPSA) were added to concrete, more water  was needed. However, the mechanical properties of the  concrete were similar or better than the concrete made with  just Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). Finer RHA and  WPSA gave the best improvements. Rice husk and waste  paper ash made things shrink a lot because of tiny particles  that cause it to happen. This research looked at using waste  paper sludge ash instead of some of the cement in a kind of  concrete called M20 mix. They tested different amounts of  the ash (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%) to see how  strong it made the concrete. They tested the strength of the  concrete up to 28 days after it was made and compared it to  normal concrete. Waste paper sludge can be used as fuel  because it has a lot of heat energy. Afterwards, the remaining  ash can be used to replace some of the cement.
