Overview

Experimental analysis demonstrates corn cob ash's efficacy in sandcrete bricks, suggesting eco-friendly construction options.

Key Points

  • Corn cob ash can replace up to 10% of cement in sandcrete bricks without compromising compressive strength.
  • The compressive strength of the blended bricks was maintained above 2.5 N/mm² with 11.98% water absorption.
  • Utilization of corn cob ash offers a cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative to traditional cement.
  • Response surface methodology was employed to optimize the mixture design for improved performance measures.
