Study of Compressive Strength by UTM

Amandeep Singh Dahiya, Kapil Bhutani, Ajay Thakur

Abstract


Waste reduction techniques are focussed on utilising industrial and agricultural waste. This waste utilisation should not only be economical but also helps in sustainable development. There has been a lot of emphasis on sustainable development over the years with much focus on reduction of environmental impacts and utilization of wastes. Researchers have been trying to find replacement to cement in concrete considering the environmental impactcement manufacturing units cause by carbon dioxide emissions. Numerous industrial andagricultural wastes have been brought up to be effective eco-friendly binders. Sugarcane bagasse is one of the most important industrial waste products produced in India, and it is available as a result of burning cane sugarcane boiling at very high temperatures. This widely available ash contains amorphous silica, so it can be replaced with concrete. In this study, solid ash from M20grade concrete is applied by adding 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% by weight. Prepared concrete and tested for durability and compression strength after a period of 7 days, 28 days. 35 days 56 days and 90 days.
