Test results substantiate the feasibility to develop low cost self compacting concrete using bagasse ash. In the fresh state of concrete,
the different mixes of concrete have slump flow in the range of 333 mm to 815 mm, L-box ratio ranging from 0 to 1 and flow
time ranging from 1.8 s to no flow (stucked). Out of twenty five different mixes, five mixes were found to satisfy the requirements
suggested by European federation of national trade associations representing producers and applicators of specialist building products
(EFNARC) guide for making self compacting concrete. The compressive strengths developed by the self compacting concrete
mixes with bagasse ash at 28 days were comparable to the control concrete. Cost analysis showed that the cost of ingredients
of specific self compacting concrete mix is 35.63% less than that of control concrete, both having compressive strength above
34 MPa
