  • Abstract:
  • The consumption of cement in concrete industries is increasing day by day. Concrete is the most widely used construction material in civil engineering industry because of its high structural strength and stability. In this present experimental work an attempt is made to replace cement by Coal Bottom Ash (CBA). The cement has been replaced by CBA in the range of 5%,10%,15% of weight of cement for M₃₅ grade mix. Also 0.5%,1% and 1.5% of sisal fibre has been added to the concrete to make it stronger. The concrete was tested for 7,14 and 28 days in Compressive and Split Tensile strength test .The results were compared with those of conventional concrete to find optimum percentage of CBA. . The optimum percentage is 5% coal bottom ash and 0.5% sisal fibre. The flexural strength of beam was tested for 28 days in optimum percentage.
