This paper presents the use of bagasse ash (BA) as a pozzolanic material for producing high-strength concrete.
Portland cement type I (PC) is partially replaced with finely ground bagasse ash. The test results indicate that the incorporation of BA up to 30% replacement level increases the resistance to chloride penetration. Besides, the use of 10% of BA produced concretes with good strength and low porosity. Reasonably, the substitution of 30% BA is acceptable for producing high-strength concrete.
