3 INTRODUCTION Fly ash concrete is an eco-friendly construction
material in which fly ash replaces a part of Portland cement.
But IS:456 – 2000 and ACI:318 allows replacement of OPC by Fly ash up to 35% only as binding material.
High volume fly ash concrete is a concrete where a replacement of about 35% or more of cement is made with the usage of fly ash.

4 WHAT IS FLY ASH? Fly ash is a finely divided byproduct resulting from the
combustion of coal in power plants. It contains large amounts of silica, alumina and small
amount of unburned carbon, which pollutes environment.
It is grey in colour and alkaline in nature. The particle size ranges between 1-100 microns. The specific gravity of FA lies between 1.9 and 2.8
(generally 3.15 for Cement)
![Page 5: Fly Ash Concrete PPT](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050615/587434031a28ab72188b823d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

The surface area is typically 300–500 m2/kg, although some FA can have a surface area as high as 700 m2/kg ( around 330 m2/kg for Cement )
The mass per unit volume including air between particles ( density ) can vary from 540 to 860 kg/m3.

6 Classification of Fly Ash Two classes of fly ash are defined by ASTM
C618: Class F fly ash Class C fly ash
This classification is based on the chemical composition of FA i.e. the sum of silica, alumina and iron oxide percentages in the FA, being : minimum of 70% for a Class F minimum 50% for a Class C

8 ISSUES WITH OPC
Conventional Portland Cement is the most consumed commodity in the world after water.
It is also the most energy intensive material Cement production leads to high carbon-dioxide
emission. CO2 is the primary green house gas that causes global
warming manufacturing of cement accounts for 6 to 7% of the CO2
that humans produce. It is produced by calcination of limestone and burning of
fossil fuels

9 WHY TO USE FLY ASH? being a pozzolanic, it can actually replace a part
of Portland cement results in more durable concrete high ultimate strength improves workability improves cost economy of concrete reduction in heat of hydration decreases density of concrete more environment friendly concrete.

SEGREGATION 3. HEAT OF HYDRATION 4. DENSITY

11 WORKABILITY
The inclusion of high volume of fly ash increases the workability as the content of FA is increased.
The increment in the slump height is about
40% and 54% with the inclusion of 45% and 50% FA, respectively.
generally higher substitution of Portland cement by fly ash reduces the water requirement for obtaining a given workability

. Effect of fly ash fineness & % onwater demand of concrete
![Page 13: Fly Ash Concrete PPT](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050615/587434031a28ab72188b823d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13 WORKABILITY reduction in water requirement is mainly due to three mechanisms:
Fly ash gets absorbed on the surface of oppositely charged cement particles and prevent them from flocculation, releasing large amounts of water, thereby reducing the water-demand for a given workability.
The spherical shape and the smooth surface of fly ash particles help to reduce the interparticle friction and thus facilitate mobility
Due to its lower density and higher volume per unit mass, fly ash is a more efficient void-filler than Portland cement.

14 Contributions of enhanced workability:
Light weight concrete is easier to pump as pumping requires less energy.
Improved finishing Reduced segregation and bug holes Reduced Bleeding Less sand is needed in the mix to produce
required workability.

15 SETTING TIME
High volume of fly ash extends both the initial and final setting time of concrete
The impact of fly ash on the setting behavior of concrete is dependent on: composition and quantity of fly ash used amount of cement water - to – cementitious material ratio concrete temperature

17 Bleeding and Segregation The inclusion of high volume of fly ash in the
mixture reduces the bleeding and segregation.
Reason: the rate and amount of bleeding decreases due
to the reduced water demand. The reduction of bleeding and segregation may
be related to the lubricating effect of the glassy spherical FA particles.

18 HEAT OF HYDRATION
Both the maximum rate of heat evolution and the cumulative heat evolution decrease with the inclusion of 45% FA during the first 72 hours.
The inclusion of 45% FA results in 36% reduction in the cumulative heat evolution.
In addition, the time of reaching the maximum rate of heat evolution delays.

21 DENSITY
Inclusion of high volume of fly ash in the mixture decreases its density which leads to a reduction in the dead weight of the constructed element.
Reason: This reduction in the density could be attributed to
the lower specific gravity of FA (1.9 to 2.8) as compared to cement (3.15)

25 The cement pastes were prepared in a mechanical mixer
50-mm cube specimens were cast (3 specimens per age)
At the age of 24 h, the specimens were demolded and placed in vacuum sealed plastic bags in a moist room, (95 ± 3)% RH and (23 ± 2)˚C, until the age of testing.

The compressive strength gain after 3 d, 7 d, 28 d and 90 d for each mixture
![Page 27: Fly Ash Concrete PPT](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050615/587434031a28ab72188b823d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

The compressive strength of the 40-F paste is similar to that of the OPC paste at any age
while that of the 60-F paste is very similar to the BC paste at early ages (3 d and 7 d) and higher at 28 d and 90 d.
The compressive strength of the 80-F paste is lower than that of the BC paste at any age; its strength can reach up to 22 MPa at 28 d and 35 MPa at 90 d.

29 Rate of strength gain
The rate of strength gain in the FA-F pastes increases with the replacement level.
Between 28 d and 90 d, the strength gain of OPC paste is similar to that of the BC paste but lower than that of the 80-F paste (≈0.21 MPa/d).
For the 40-F and 60-F pastes, the strength gains are the lowest (≈0.07 MPa/d and 0.08 MPa/d, respectively), between 28 d and 90 d.

30 DURABILITYAbrasion Resistance The mix containing 70% FA exhibits a slightly lower
abrasion value than the concrete containing 50% FA and OPC concrete
although 70% FA exhibits a higher abrasion value below a certain compressive strength.
The abrasion resistance is mainly dependent on the compressive strength of concrete.
It is assumed that C-S-H of 50% FA or OPC provide better cohesion to the aggregate-sand-paste and therefore better resist the action of surface shear forces.

31 Permeability and Resistance to Penetration of Chlorides Fly ash reduces permeability of concrete to
water and gas provided the concrete is adequately cured, due to a refinement in the pore structure.
Through pozzolanic activity, fly ash chemically combines with water and CaOH2 – forming additional cementitious compounds, therefore : it is not subject to leaching it decreases bleed channels, capillary channels
and void spaces and thereby reduces permeability.
![Page 32: Fly Ash Concrete PPT](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050615/587434031a28ab72188b823d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32 With the use of fly ash, concrete becomes nearly impermeable to chlorides and the rate of chloride penetration decreases significantly.

33Alkali- Silica Reaction Class F fly ash is capable of controlling alkali – silica
reaction in concrete even at moderate levels of replacement (20% to 30%)
Reason : concentration of alkali hydroxides is reduced in the pore solution when fly ash is present
The level of fly ash required to suppress expansion of concrete increases with: Increased calcium and alkali content of fly ash; Decreased silica content of fly ash; Increased aggregate reactivity; Increased alkali availability from Portland cement and
environment

34 There is low risk of concrete expansion occurring in the field
when very high volume fly ash concrete with 50% or more fly ash is used.

35 Sulfate Resistance HVFA concrete specimens exhibit higher sulfate
resistance. The specimens containing 60% FA as cement replacement exhibited better performance in lactic/acetic and sulfuric acid
FA induces three phenomena which improves sulfate resistance: consumes the free lime resulting it unavailable to
react with sulfate, reduces permeability which prevents sulfate
penetration, and by replacing cement, the reactive aluminates are
reduced.

36 Carbonation and Corrosion Resistance When concrete specimens are exposed to
different methods of carbonation, the results show a reduction in the carbonation resistance of concrete specimens with the inclusion of 50% FA as cement replacement.
Therefore there is increase in the carbonation depth of concrete specimens
in areas prone to carbonation, particular attention must be paid to ensure suitable: concrete mix proportions, period of moist curing, and depth of cover

38 Resistance to Cyclic Freezing and Thawing, and Deicer Salt Scaling
Concrete can be resistant to cyclic freezing and thawing provided: it has sufficient strength an adequate air void system the aggregates are frost resistant. This holds true for fly ash concrete
concrete containing fly ash is less resistant to scaling when subjected to freezing and thawing in presence of deicer salts.
For fly ash concrete structures exposed to de-icing salts the following observations have been made: scaling increases as the w/cm increases scaling mass loss increases with fly ash content the use of curing compounds reduces scaling

39 CONCLUSION Use of high volume fly ash concrete in construction is one
big step in natural resource conservation and it needs to be promoted all over the world.
In fact, we can call high volume fly ash concrete as a green concrete, since it can protect the environment from global warming and at the same time from pollution.
There may be some negativity attached to it like slower construction rates as it gains strength slowly and gives lower early strengths.
But, the same can be ignored as the later strengths (90 days or more) and durability of high volume fly ash concrete is much better than plain concrete.
![Page 40: Fly Ash Concrete PPT](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050615/587434031a28ab72188b823d/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40 Clearly there is no one replacement level best suited for all applications.
The inclusion of high volume fly ash in the mixture causes :
Reduced the heat of hydration, bleeding, segregation, density, but increased workability and setting time.
Decreased the mechanical strength especially at early ages with increasing FA content.
Increased durability of concrete reduced resistance against Deicer Salt Scaling.
