Behaviour of periwinkle shell ash blended cement concrete in sulphuric acid environment

open access: yesNigerian Journal of Technology, 2018
This paper presents the influence of sulphuric acid on compressive strength of concrete made with cement blended with periwinkle shell ash (PSA). The cement component was replaced with PSA at 0 %, 5 %, 10 %, 15 % and 20 %. Concrete mix ratio of 1:2:4 and
