Effect of fly ash on the properties of cement. This experimental work is an effort to try to develop the awareness & importance trial waste management & its utilization in productive manner among the people. In today’s more environmentally-Conscious world, a more responsible approach to the environment is to increase the use of by-products of one industry which is disposed off as waste as row material for some other industry developed countries have made rapid strides in the utilization of supplementary Cementitious material in cement and concrete. lack of awareness, consumer preferences, negative marketing strategies & Lot of miss- understanding among the people have impeded their utilization in our country. In this work I have chosen fly ash for blending with Portland cement Viz. Fly ash. This waste after grinding properly was blended with ordinary Portland cement in different proportions. Then that blended cement was tested for various properties of cements such as fineness, Standard Consistency, Soundness, Setting time & Compressive Strength. As the waste in powder form is of cementitious materials, they are proved to be best when blended with cement. I have got improved results related to most of the properties of cement as compared to that of ordinary Portland Cement. As industrial wastes pose a big problem of their disposal such waste can be blended with cement, bringing economy in Construction industry. So such waste can be blended with Cement, is the step towards economy & obviously towards progress of the nation.
