Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

An analysis of data, accumulated during a laboratory test program, indicates that waste boiler ash (fly ash) produced at the Four Corners Generating Station, Fruitland, New Mexico can be used advantageously as an admixture in portland cement concrete. Compressive and flexural strength data have been obtained over a ninety day curing period. These data are utilized in the development of a mix design procedure aimed at optimizing the proportions of fly ash and portland cement relative to economic factors.
