Typically, Class F fly ash is used at dosages of 15% to 25% by mass of cementitious material and Class C fly ash at 15% to 40%. However, fly ash has not been used in interior, steel-troweled slabs because of the inherent problems or challenges associated with fly ash variability and delayed concrete hardening.
Micro-pores with areas of 0.1–0.2 mm 2 were the most abundant inside the fly ash concrete specimen, followed by the 0.2–0.3 mm 2 and 0.01–0.1 mm 2. The percentages of the pores with an area within this range for the specimen SF0C0 were 70.61%, while the value for the specimen SF450C54 was 71.79%, which increased by …

Wet storage effects on fly ash, mean processing may be necessary to achieve physical properties required for use in concrete. This paper considers drying, de-agglomeration and milling of various wet stored fly ashes at laboratory and pilot/benchtop scales, towards meeting these. In the laboratory, different batch quantities and milling …
The use of geopolymer as a cementitious material for geopolymer concrete (GPC) is beneficial for the sustainable development and green transformation of the construction industry. Geopolymer concrete has many advantages, such as high strength, heat and corrosion resistance, low hydration heat, and carbon emissions. This paper …
