Abstract
In the last few decades, rapid industrialization and urbanization have commenced along with the increase in the rate of population. The rate of construction activities has increased extensively to meet the demand of inhabitants where concrete can play a significant role. In this regard, cement is an essential ingredient of concrete and needs a substantial quantity of energy and raw material for its production. The present study focuses on integrating rice straw ash (RSA), a by-product of the open-field burning of rice straw, as a substitution material for cement in concrete. Since the study highlighted the pozzolanic behavior of RSA as identified by characterization techniques, thus, RSA has been incorporated at different proportions (2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, 10%) to examine its influence on mechanical and durability characteristics after 7, 28 and 56 days of curing. Further, analytical assessments such as mathematical analysis of mechanical and durability properties, cost analysis and global warming potential for each concrete mix have also been carried out for the practical viability of RSA-based concrete. The results of this study revealed that an 8% substitution of RSA provides a better-optimized performance and can be considered for construction activities.
