For construction, one of the most important materials is concrete. Concrete is preferred because of its Low cost, High strength, Thermal & fire resistance, Availability, Durability, Diversity etc.To check the compressive and flexure strength, concrete cubes reinforced with Wood Ash pellets have been tested by changing the percentage The cement and wood ash proportions of 25:75 , 27.5:72.5,30:70, 32.5:67.5 and 35:65 were tried with a suitable water cement ratio 0.4 to get the ash aggregates .Aggregate is most widely used in reinforced concrete construction.wood ash is generated as residual from combustion done in boilers at pulp and paper mill, since wood is a renewable resource for energy and an environmently friendly material.There is an increased requirement of using waste wood for the purpose of energy production thus leading to formation of more wood ash waste. Uncontrolled burning of saw dust to form wood ash is used as a partial replacement of aggregate, thereby changing its physical and chemical properties. In this project, artificial wood ash aggregates were used in concrete and its effect on strength of concrete was studied. The particle size distribution, specific gravity, bulk density and impact test on aggregate were conducted.. The conventional and artificial ash aggregates concrete cubes,cylinders and beam specimens were cast. All the specimens were cured in curing tank. Compressive and Extramural strength tests were conducted on these normal and artificial ash aggregates concrete specimens.The results were tabulated. Based on the results obtained, conclusions and suggestions were made Usually M20 concrete is used for most of the constructional works, hence in this project M20 concrete is taken.
