📄 Project Abstract

The study examined the partial replacement of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) with Periwinkle shell Ash (PSA) and Periwinkle Shell Dust which was obtained from burning 200kg of Periwinkle shell at 6000C and grinding 200kg with ball mill respectively. Concrete cubes were prepared from design mix with target strength of 20N/mm2, 25N/mm2, 30N/mm2 and 40N/mm2 and the replacement of the PSA and PSD were 0%, 5%, 10% and 20% respectively. The chemical analysis of both samples indicated that CaO content in PSA is higher than PSD leading to quick reaction with water. The presence of organic calcium in PSD was responsible for slowing setting of the concrete and subsequently leading to disintegration of the paste at 20% replacement when tested for soundness. The workability test indicated that as the percentage replacement of PSA and PSD increases the slump test value degreases, while compressive strength decrease with increasing replacement and increase with curing age. The design compressive str...
