Suitability of natural pozzolans as additive in production of hollow sandcrete block Department:Civil Engineering By: elderpeter Project ID: 7698 Rating: (5.0) votes: 1 Price:₦3000 Get the Complete MaterialAbstractThis project was carried out to investigate the suitability of natural pozzolans as additives in the production of hollow sandcrete block using rice husk ash. Some related texts were reviewed and laboratory experiments were carried out to examine the comprehensive strength of hollow concrete blocks. The need to reduce the high cost of Ordinary Portland Cement in order to provide accommodation for the populace has intensified research into the use of some locally available materials that could be used as partial replacement for Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). Supplementary cementitious materials have been proven to be effective in meeting most of the requirements of durable concrete and blended cements are now used in many parts of the world. ...Preview Download Preview +Other Civil Engineering project topics and materials you might be interested in»Comparing the compressive strength of concrete made with sand as fine aggregate and with chipping dust as fine aggregate»The comparative study of the compressive strength of concrete made with granite to that made with river round stone (pebble) and local stone»The use of computer in civil engineering»Importance of timber in civil engineering construction»Construction and Installation of a Panel Door»Construction of wardrobe key study on wood work»Effect of street trading on traffic performance and control»Assessment of different types of foundation and their mode of construction»Comparison of soil bearing capacity of different locations in Imo state»Investigation into the suitability of sand and gravel materials commonly used in building construction»Investigating the effect of partial replacement of cement with eggshell powder in concrete production»An investigation in to the causes of cracks in building and possible solutions - a case study of Kukar Gesa community in Katsina metropolis»Suitability of available laterite material in Ilorin East local government area for road construction»Determination of the causes, effects of environmental pollution and its possible control within Kwara and Osun state»Model for prediction of rainfall intensity in Lagos
