Strength development, deformation properties and mix design of pulverized fuel ash concrete
Discusses the properties of pulverized fuel ash (PFA) concrete both in its fresh and hardened states, with emphasis on aspects which are relevant to warmer localities such as Hong Kong. Sufficient research evidence, including surveys of existing structures, have been reviewed to conclude that PFA, when used correctly and properly, has the potential to enhance the performance of good concrete. Analyses the contribution of PFA in the enhanced performance of concrete. Cautions that much of the enhanced performance depends on the microstructure of the concrete, which in turn depends significantly on a proper mix design, with or without PFA. Proposes that water reduction is a desirable property of PFA. However, considers it possible to accommodate PFA characteristics in the mix design and by the use of plasticizer to produce good quality PFA concrete. Briefly discusses the characteristics of Hong Kong locally produced PFA.
