Study Mechanical
Behaviors Rice husk ash and carrot powders as Mortar for Cement
Replacement |
|
This
study was carried out to investigate the physical and mechanical
properties of mortar cement produced from biomaterials like rice
husk ash (RHA) and carrot powder (CP). To do this, 8 mortar
cement specimens were formed by changing the weight of RHA and
CP with cement. Increasing ratio of RHA and CP weight ratio
affected the compressive strength, impact, hardness. As for the
bending ,water absorption and fracture toughness decreased and
were affected positively. It was concluded that RHA and CP might
be used in mortar cement production replaced the cement in
certain ratio to make them profitable and lessen their adverse
effects
