    • ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]ABSTRACTSugarcane Bagasse is the fibrous residue leftover when sugarcane is squeezed for its juice. Bagasse ash is obtained by subjecting Bagasse to calcinations using furnace. This work is aimed tat using Bagasse Ash as a replacement in the production of concrete.The bagasse was collected from dumped in a market in Kano and thereafter sun-drie to eliminate any trace of moisture. It was then taken to the blast furnace for calcinations(controlled burning) at a temperature of 1250OC for 25minutes. ... Continue reading---

      CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CHAPTER ONEINTRODUCTION1.1    Preamble     Concrete is the most commonly used construction material in the world. It is basically composed of two components: paste and aggregates. The paste which acts as binder contains cement, water and occasionally admixtures; the aggregate contains sand and gravel or crushed stone (Naik and Moriconi, 2003). The aggregate are relatively inert filler materials which occupy 70% to 80% of concrete and can therefore be expected to have influence on its prope ... Continue reading---

         

      CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 6 ]The most common classification of Portland cement is that of ASTM. It classifies Portland cement mainly into five groups (non-air entrained) differing only on the relative amount of the compounds and the degree of fineness. •    ASTM type I cement is a general purpose Portland cement used when there is no special property required by the concrete. •    ASTM type II cement is Moderate Portland cement. It is also a general-purpose cement to be used when moderate sulphate resistan ... Continue reading---

         

      CHAPTER THREE - [ Total Page(s): 6 ]The ash was then taken to the Engineering Development Institute in Akure for the chemical analysis using EDX3600 X-ray fluorescence spectrometer technology to      conduct fast and accurate analysis of the bagasse ash composition and other related tests.  3.2.3 Test on Baggash and cement3.2.3.1 Fineness test     Finess simply implies how fine the particle of cement is to touch. It can be determined by Blair air method, Wagner turbid meter and dry sieve method. Fineness of the bagasse as ... Continue reading---

Hence the soil is classified as Coarse Aggregate. ... Continue reading---
