Effect of rice husk ash (RHA) on physical property and mechanical strength of concrete

Fast depleting natural resources, huge consumption of energy, and environmental hazards involved in the production of cement has inspired researchers to find partial replacement of cement using other or similar materials. Rice husk ash (RHA), an agricultural waste, is classified as “a highly active...
