Ordinary Portland Cement is recognized as a major construction material throughout the world. Researchers all over the world today are focusing on ways of utilizing either industrial or agricultural waste, as a source of raw materials for industry. This waste utilization would not only be economical, but may also result in foreign exchange earnings and environmental pollution. wastes, such as blast furnace slag, fly ash and silica fume are being used as supplementary cement replacement materials. A few studies have been carried out on the ashes obtained directly from the industries to study pozzolanic activity and their suitability as binders, partially replacing cement. This project analyses the effect of SCBA in concrete by partial replacement of cement at the ratio of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% by weight by using magnesium sulphate solution. The bagasse is an important by-product of the sugar cane industry and most of it is used to produce steam and electricity in a co-generation plant at the ethanol plant.. This experimental study examines the compressive strength of concrete. The main ingredients used are Portland cement, SCBA, river sand, coarse aggregate and water. After mixing, concrete specimens were casted and subsequently all test specimens were cured in water at 7 days, 28days, 56days, 90days, and 180days.
