An Experimental Study on the Durability of Concrete using the Bottom Ash as a part of Fine Aggregate

Bottom Ash를 잔 골재 대체재로 사용한 콘크리트의 내구성에 관한 실험적 연구

Recently, the by-product of coal ash has been increased by increase of consumption of electric power. So in view of environmental aspect, it is important to secure a reclaimed land and treatment utility for coal ash. This is an experimental study to compare and analyze the properties of high volume coal-ash concrete using the bottom ash. For this purpose, the mix proportions of concrete according to the replacement ratio of bottom ash(l0, 20, 35, 50%). And then air content, slump, compressive strength, durability test were performed. According to test results, it was found that the compressive strength of bottom ash concrete was similar to that of plain concrete(BA0). And the carbonation depth of bottom ash concrete increased as the replacement ratio of bottom ash.
