Modern thermal power plants are producing large amounts of fly ash that is generally quite suitable for use as a supplementary cementitious material in concrete. However, for tilis purpose the fly ash utilization in the United States continues to remain low, mainly on account of lack of quality cont

With otherwise similar chemical end mineralogical composition of fly ash, is it its fineness which has the most significant influence on the properties of concrete. Coarser fly ash is, as a rule, suitable only as a substitute of s portion of fine aggregates or as s correction of unsuitable shape and
The effectiveness, K, of a fly ash can be defined as the ratio of the amount of cement replaced to the amount of fly ash added, provided the specified requirements of the concrete are maintained. It is generally assumed that the effectiveness of a fly ash can be treated as a constant. This paper pre
The optimization of properties of lightweight fly ash aggregates for suitability in high-strength lightweight fly ash concrete production was investigated using response surface methodology (RSM). Design-Expert software was used to establish the design matrix and to analyze the experimental data. Th
The effect of replacing 30 % of portland cement by Spanish fly ash (class F according to ASTM C-618) and their sized fractions obtained using sieves on compressive and flexural strength of mortars was investigated. The study reveals an enhancement of compressive strength when fineness of fly ash fra
