Environmental sustainability and engineering performance of OPC-fly ash mortar mixs with different workability

Engineering performance and environmental sustainability of mortar mixes through the incorporation of different replacement levels of fly ash at 10%, 20%, 40% and 60% respectively were investigated. Samples of mortar were prepared by using four different water / binder ratios of 0.35, 0.40, 0.45 and...
