| Abstract | ||
| This research deals with the effects of using rice husk ash (RHA) as a partial weight of cement replacement materials in cement mortar mixes. This work is based on an experimental study of mortar made with ordinary Portland cement (OPC) and 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% (OPC) replaced by RHA. The rice husk ash used was produced by burning the rice husk at 500˚ C, then grinding it to a fineness of 11200 cm2/gm (Blaine). The tests which were performed evaluate the action of this material were: normal consistency, setting time, compressive strength, flexural strength and porosity. The results show that addition of RHA show better results for 15% replacement level than OPC at 90 days | ||
