Strength Development of Concrete With Fly Ash Addition

Based on experimental results, mathematical models were elaborated to predict the development of compressive strength of concrete with fly ash replacement percentages up to 30 %. Strength of concrete with different types of cement (CEM I 42.5, CEM I 32.5, CEM III 32.5), after 2, 28, 90, 180 days of curing, have been analysed to evaluate the effect of addition content, the time of curing and the type of cement on the compressive strength changes. The adequacy of equations obtained was verified using statistical methods. The test results of selected properties of binders and hardened concrete with fly ash are also included. The analysis showed that concrete with fly ash is characterised by advantageous applicable qualities.
