spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/8457 The compressive strength of fly ash concrete and its mineralogy Gogol, Volker R Civil Engineering Includes bibliographical references. The use of fly ash as a cement extender in portland cement concrete is well established. Strict requirements are set for the fly ash on its physical properties and chemical composition to ensme its successful application as a partial replacement material for cement. An investigation was undertaken into the effectiveness and properties of a high carbon clinker ash when used as a cement extender at a 30 direct mass to mass substitution for portland cement. The clinker ash came from the Van Eck power station in Windhoek, Namibia and was milled to pass a 63micron sieve. For comparison fly ashes from the Escom power stations of Lethabo, Duvha and Matla were used. Both concrete and pure paste specimens were prepared for the evaluations. 2014-10-17T07:25:30Z 2014-10-17T07:25:30Z 1994 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/8457 eng application/pdf Department of Civil Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town
