Abstract
The silica content of the ricehull ash (RHA) gives it the pozzolanic property which
makes it a suitable replacement for ordinary Portland cement. This study aimed to
determine the effect of RHA, as partial cement replacement, on concrete's workability,
permeability, and compressive strength. Also, it aimed to compare the changes in
compressive strength before and after exposure to coastal conditions and perform a cost
analysis of concrete mixtures. This experiment used three treatments (5%, 10%, 15%) level of RHA, a partial replacement to cement.
This study concludes that replacing cement with RHA resulted in low workability and lower chloride penetration. Also, replacing cement of up to 10% RHA has comparable
compressive strength with pure concrete before exposure to coastal conditions. Replacing 5% to 15% of RHA has comparable compressive strength with pure concrete after exposure to coastal conditions. Using RHA replacement has a lower production cost than pure concrete.
