Overview

This analysis reveals improved compressive strength and durability of concrete using rice husk ash and microsilica, suggesting environmental benefits for construction materials.

Key Points

  • Enhanced compressive strength achieved with 20% and 35% replacements of rice husk ash and microsilica.
  • Performance improvements include significant reductions in water absorption and permeability in optimized concrete mixes.
  • Assessment through experimental methods highlighted the microstructural benefits of calcium silicate hydrate formation.
  • Findings suggest promising avenues for eco-friendly concrete alternatives that could support sustainability in infrastructure projects.
