  • Abstract:
  • The creation of artificial aggregates from fly ash facilitates the use of a substantial proportion of fly ash in concrete. This component has recently gained popularity worldwide because to its extensive use, which reduces environmental degradation and the depletion of natural resources. Aggregate is used as an inert filler in concrete manufacture to add bulk volume and rigidity. The chemical and physical properties of fly ash aggregate have been determined. The M20, regular concrete, and lightweight concrete mix designs are evaluated. Natural aggregate replaces fly ash aggregate in M20 grade conventional concrete at percentages of 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%, with a water-to-cement ratio of 0.44. A 0.45 water-to-cement ratio is used to make lightweight concrete out of fly ash. Concrete's mechanical properties are examined for 7, 14, and 28 days, in that sequence. According to this study, lightweight concrete has a lower compressive strength than standard concrete. Furthermore, the outcomes of replacing concrete with various quantities of fly ash aggregates were investigated, and it was determined that 15% of the replacement with fly ash aggregate demonstrates better strength than other percentages and weights of the concrete.
