Abstract
This research focuses on influence of utilizing original bagasse ash as fine aggregate on the property of cellular concrete. The original bagasse ash (BG) from the Thai sugar industry was used to replace river sand (SA) at 0%, 20%, 30% and 40% by volume. All mixes were controlled flow between 45 ± 5% and used foam content (FV) at 50% by volume of mixture. Compressive strength, density, water absorption, and microstructure analysis were determined. The results revealed that the compressive strength and density decreased with increasing of BG content, while the water absorption slightly increased as compared to the control cellular concrete. In addition, it was found that the increasing of the BG content had a little effect on the chemical reaction of cellular concrete. The optimum replacement level of BG to SA was 20% by volume which it gave the compressive strength, density, and water absorption of 3.37 MPa, 1,000 kg/cm3 and 25%, respectively. From the experimental results, it can be concluded that the BG could be used as a fine aggregate in the cellular concrete.
Keywords : Cellular concrete, bagasse ash,
compressive strength, water absorption.
