Information Paper 11/87 Pulverized-fuel ash - its use in concrete: Part 1 Material properties, British Standards and concrete strength
Publication Year
1997
Document Status
Current
Abstract
Describes the use of pulverized-fuel ash (pfa) as a component of the cementitious material in concrete and outlines the British Standards which define acceptable properties of pfa and pfa cements. As an aid to civil and structural engineers, particularly concrete specifiers, the paper summarises the way in which the rates of compressive strength development in pfa and non-pfa concretes may be affected differently by temperature and curing conditions. The durability of pfa concrete is the subject of Part 2 of this Information Paper.
