Investigation of Workability and Compressive Strength of Wood Ash Cement Concrete Containing Nanosilica

Studies have revealed that wood ash cement concrete just like other pozzolanic cement concrete has lower early strength compared to plain cement concrete. Nanoparticles have been found to improve the early strength of concrete due to its small size and large surface area. This paper reports the findings on influence of nanosilica on the workability and compressive strength of wood ash cement concrete. Wood ash was obtained as a waste product...
