Abstract On Advanced Construction Materials Microsilica In Concrete

Effects of rice straw ash and micro silica on ScienceDirect

As microsilica is a costly material its inclusion in the concrete will increase the construction cost of the structure Therefore a material was needed that is economical as well as it also imparts strength to the concrete Rice straw ash has all the properties of a better pozzolan and it is much cheaper than most of the mineral admixtures
