Abstract
In today’s world one of the most common man-made materials widely used as concrete. Around 1 ton of concrete is produced every year for an individual person. Concrete is composed of mainly cement, fine aggregates, coarse aggregates & water. As the construction industry is the 2nd biggest industry, environmental and social responsibility contributes to the sustainable development.
Bamboo leaf ash has received recent interest as an agricultural waste with pozzolanic reactivity. An estimated 20 million tons of bamboo are used annually in the culinary, brewing, building, agricultural, fiber, paper, and board industries. The usage of banana leaf ash (BLA) has shown itself to be a substitute for cement for similar materials More than 10 billion metric tons of concrete are utilized worldwide as building materials. Both (bamboo leaf and banana leaf) leaves are dried in the sun for 15 days before being burned outside. Ash is the term for the leftover substance from burning. The finished product is sufficiently fine to mix with cement. The Portland cement (PC) was then combined with the bamboo leaf and banana leaf ash to create high-performance concrete (HPC) at 0, 5, 10, and 15% by weight of cement. keeping the 5% by weight of maize silk fibers, an addition to cement, constant. Slump flow testing was used to assess the workability of recent HPC samples. HPC samples’ mechanical (compressive) properties were assessed after 28 days of hydration. SEM (Scanning electron microscope) is used for morphological research.
