Chemical Comparison of Fly Ash & Portland Cement - Technical Bulletin
The table below shows typical compound analyses for two fly ashes and a natural pozzolan (Class F fly ash, Class C fly ash and Class N - Natural) and ordinary portland cement. A glance at the table reveals that the same compounds exist in fly ash and portland cement. Those of fly ash are amorphous (glassy) due to rapid cooling; those of cement are crystalline, formed by slower ...

HVFA for Concrete Structures - Technical Bulletin
IN 1981, long before using high volume fly ash (HVFA) concrete in structural applications was an accepted practice, EHDD architects used concrete with 40% fly ash in the seawater holding tanks in the Monterey Bay Aquarium for durability considerations. Since then, concrete throughout the country has regularly utilized 20% to 35% fly ...

Strength of Fly Ash Concrete - Technical Bulletin
Compressive Strength: Strength gain contributed by portland cement occurs very rapidly at early ages up to about seven days, after which it slows markedly. Strength development contributed by fly ash occurs through chemical combination of reactive fly ash glass with calcium hydroxide generated by hydration of portland cement. This process is called pozzolanic ...

Fly Ash for Architectural Concrete - Technical Bulletin
Modern fly ash production and use is an integral part of concrete construction. Architects and structural engineers routinely design concrete mixes with fly ash for a wide range of structures, roadways, marine and high strength applications. Proven improvements in durability, permeability, shrinkage and long term strength gain yield better quality ...

Fly Ash for Structural Concrete - Technical Bulletin
Compressive Strength. Specifications for normal strength concrete generally require a given level of strength in 28 days. Fly ash concrete is easily proportioned to meet strength requirements at this age or any other age ...

Fly Ash in Colored Concrete - Technical Bulletin
Colored Concrete generally sells for a significant premium, depending on the desired color (or colors), and is subject to damage from aggressive chemicals, corrosion, salts, sulfates and exposure to harsh environments. Protecting the concrete by including fly ash can yield better, longer lasting colored ...

Fly Ash Improves Workability - Technical Bulletin
Blemishes in Concrete, Typically Called Rock Pockets, are indicative of concrete without suitable workability, even though the slump may be judged to be acceptable. Rock pockets indicate a separation of the paste from the coarse aggregate in the concrete mix. Concrete must be cohesive even at high slumps to maintain its homogeneous character and avoid segregation and costly rock pockets. Fly ash ...

Higher Volume Fly Ash for Concrete Pavement - Technical Bulletin
Historically, fly ash from coal combustion power plants has been utilized for reasons of economy and to maintain workability in warm climates. Experience from coast to coast illustrates how fly ash, in addition to reducing the cubic yard cost of concrete by replacing a portion of the higher priced portland cement, is further reducing the lifecycle cost of roads and bridges by improving concrete ...

Fly Ash for Stone Matrix Asphalt - Technical Bulletin
Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) is a durable, stable, rut-resistant hot mix asphalt (HMA) consisting of two parts: a coarse aggregate skeleton and an asphalt rich binder mortar. The coarse aggregate provides stone-on-stone contact for bearing and rut resistance. The asphalt rich binder provides sufficient mortar of the desired consistency for durability, requiring a large amount of mineral filler such ...

Fly Ash in Cold Weather Concrete - Technical Bulletin
Cold Weather can have detrimental effects on concrete construction unless adjustments are made and precautions are taken to ensure acceptable performance. However, placing concrete in cold weather provides an opportunity for better quality, as cooler initial concrete temperatures will typically result in higher ultimate strengths. Fly ash in conjunction with liquid admixtures such as calcium ...
-
Fly Ash in Pervious Concrete - Technical Bulletin
Pervious Concrete is a zero-slump, no-fines, open graded material consisting of portland cement, fly ash, coarse aggregate, admixtures and water. The right configuration of these materials produces a product that allows water to pass though it at the rate of 12-18 gallons per minute per square foot. The void structure of pervious concrete is typically between 18% ...

Fly Ash Types & Benefits - Technical Bulletin
The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) defines pozzolan as “a siliceous or siliceous and aluminous material, which in itself possesses little or no cementitious value, but will, in finely divided form and in the presence of moisture, chemically react with calcium hydroxide at ordinary temperatures to form compounds possessing cementitious ...

Fly Ash in Controlled Low Strength Material - Technical Bulletin
Controlled Low Strength Material (CLSM), an easy-to-place, flowable material consisting of fly ash, cement, sand, water, and 8-25% entrained air, is a slurry when placed and a low-strength engineered material when hardened. It is self-leveling, so it requires no compaction or vibration. The compressive strength can be designed to range from 0.35 MPa (50 psi) to 8 MPa (1200 psi). With compressive ...

Fly Ash for Pavement Concrete - Technical Bulletin
The Romans used naturally occurring volcanic ash from Mount Vesuvius to cement the paving stones in their roadways. Many miles of this ancient roadway – although rough by our standards – still exist as useable highway. Today in Europe, paving stones have been replaced by modern day pavement – but a product almost identical to volcanic ash is still used. In fact, most European ...

Fly Ash Decreases the Permeability of Concrete - Technical Bulletin
Permeability is Defined as the coefficient representing “the rate at which water is transmitted through a saturated specimen of concrete under an externally maintained hydraulic gradient”.1 Permeability is inversely linked to durability in that the lower the permeability, the higher the durability of ...

Fly Ash for Concrete - Brochure
Power plants fueled by coal produce more than half of the electricity we consume in the United States today. But in addition to electricity, these plants produce a material that is fast becoming a vital ingredient for improving the performance of a wide range of concrete products. That material is fly ash. Fly ash is comprised of the non-combustible mineral portion of coal. When coal is consumed ...
