Abstract:Alkali reactive sands or coarse aggregates, when used in concrete structures, produce severe deterioration because of expansion and cracking. The use of pozzolan blended cement is an attractive solution 10 mitigate this problem. This represents the results of an experimental investigation to evaluate the characteristics of pozzolan blended cement concretes. A comparison of these properties with those of unblended cements is also given. The Type VU cement was blended with three different amounts of 10%. 15%, 25% by weight of cement with five different types of natural pozzolans available in the western South I Dakota near Rapid City. The tests carried out include: (I) Fresh concrete properties such as slump, unit weight, vebe time, air content. and concrete temperature and (2) Hardened concrete properties such as compressive strength, static modulus of elasticity, flexural and impact strengths.
