An Experimental Study on Partial Replacement of Cement in Concrete with Sugarcane Bagasse Ash Using Magnetized Water

In this investigation, the “SUGARCANE BAGASSE ASH (SBA)” is used as the replacement of cement partially in concrete with proportions of 0, 5, 10 and15% using magnetized water. The silica present in the SBA gives strength for concrete and reduces the concrete's permeability. And magnetized water will give the additional strength and also helps to decrease the weight of the concrete. The SBA contains silica which interacts with cement components in the hydration process and additional properties are also imparted such as chloride resistance, corrosion resistance etc. Tests were conducted on the fresh concrete are slump cone test and compaction factor test (Cf). The compressive strength test (Cs) and tensile strength test were conducted on concrete that is in hard state for cubes that were casted and cured in normal water for ages of 7, 14, 21 and 28 days. In this investigation we were using M25 grade concrete.
