| Abstract | The utilisation of waste products as an additive in cement is vastly growing in the world of construction. The waste products such as Rice Husk Ash (RHA) and Palm Oil Fuel Ash (POFA) have frequently been used as additives in cement. This paper presents the experimental investigation conducted on Cement Paste incorporating agro-industrial waste, POFA which is the supplementary cementitious material and lime activator solution to evaluate its consistency and elementary at 1, 3, 7, and 28 days of age. For this study, three different mixes were prepared using a cube specimen size of 50 mm x 50 mm x 50 mm with the inclusion of sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate at a 1kg to 200ml ratio while 5% POFA was utilized as pozzolans that partially replaces cement. All samples including Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) cement paste were tested using Vicat apparatus and XRF analysis to perform the consistency and elementary analysis. Through this research, both mixtures of 5% POFA with sodium base consisted of a high element of calcium which gave a fast-setting cement result that is good for construction in patching and repairing concrete. |
