“…Due to limited availability of natural resources and rapid urbanization, there is a shortfall of conventional building construction materials. Therefore, study has been conducted by many researchers on the use of agricultural waste as partial construction materials either cement, sand or aggregate [7][8][9][10][11].…”

Abstract. The use of brick in construction is commonly used, especially in the construction of buildings and infrastructure. Various studies have been conducted to produce methods that can increase the strength of brick at the same time can reduce the cost of manufacturing bricks. In order to reduce cost of manufacturing, one of the solution applied was by using waste as part of bricks production materials. In this study, sugarcane bagasse (SuCaB) ash was used as a part of compressed earth brick (CEB) by replacing the quantity of cement for SuCaB ash. The study focused on the physical and mechanical properties of CEB containing SuCaB and the optimum percentage of SuCaB ash as partial cement replacement in CEB. There are 4 types of percentages used; 0%, 20%, 25% and 30% from cement content. All mixed use the same water content of 30% of cement content by weight and the ratio for cement: laterite soil used was 1: 6. A total of 72 specimen with size of 100mm x 50mm x 40mm was produced. The test conducted were Initial Rate Absorption Test (IRA), Density Test, Dimensions Test, Compression Test and Water Absorption Test. From the experimental results, the optimum SuCaB ash percentage as cement replacement in CEB was 20%. It recorded the highest compressive strength of 16.23 MPa at 28 days while for the Initial Rate Absorption test, it lies within the range specified. The density of CEB containing 20% of SuCaB shows slightly lower value where it decreased for about 0.4% from the control specimen. From this study, it can be concluded that waste materials such as sugarcane bagasse can be used as part of construction materials. However, further study needs to be conducted such as on the energy consumption, chemical properties and others to enhance the knowledge on this area before it can be applied into the brick production.

“…Related studies by Ganesan et al 4 and Cordeiro et al 5 showed that sugarcane bagasse ash blended concretes recorded enhanced strength and durability properties. Similarly, Chusilp et al 6 observed that concrete containing up to 30% ground bagasse ash as cement replacement material showed higher compressive strength, lower water permeability and heat evolution compared to the control concrete at 28 and 90 days. Given the various benefits accruable from the use of these aforementioned waste materials in concrete, it is imperative that the utilization of other categories of waste materials in cement based mixtures be investigated.…”

The effects of copper tailings as an additive, on some durability properties of cement mixtures were investigated. In each mixture, copper tailings addition levels by mass were 0%, 5% and 10%. Compared to the control samples, copper tailings blended pastes showed superior performance against autoclave expansion while insignificant decreases in sulfate resistance of mortars were observed. Copper tailings increased the water absorption and total permeable voids of concretes slightly. However, the compressive and flexural strengths of blended concretes were higher than those of the control samples. Similarly, improved resistance to acid attack and chloride penetration as the copper tailings content of concretes increased were also observed. Results further showed that the ASTM C 1202 rapid chloride permeability test may not be a valid indicator of chloride migration in mixtures containing conductive copper tailings. These results suggest that copper tailings can potentially enhance the durability properties of cement based materials.

“…Industrial wastes, such as blast furnace slag, fly ash and silica fume are being used as supplementary cement replacement materials [13]. When this bagasse is burned under controlled conditions, it gives ash having amorphous silica, which has pozzolanic properties Therefore it is possible to use sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA)) as cement replacement material to improve quality and reduce the cost of construction materials in concrete and also reduce the environment pollution .SCBA is used as fuel in the cogeneration process to produce steam and electricity in sugar industries [8][9][10]. When baggase is burnt in combustion boiler under controlled burning, reactive amorphous silica is formed in the residual ashes [8][9][10].…”

“…After burning baggase ash is collected as a byproduct from cogeneration boiler and directly dumped to nearest disposal area. SCBA is generated in large quantities (67,000 tonnes/day) in India, because of the extensively developed sugar industry [8][9][10]. The total worldwide production of sugarcane was approximately 1794 million tons [6].…”

The present era is "THE ERA OF CONCRETE" because concrete is the most consumed material after water in developing countries. The huge demand of concrete requires large amount of cement which is the basic necessity for strength development of concrete. Large consumption of cement forces very high production to satisfy the demand. But production of cement produces CO2 in the atmosphere. One ton of cement produces about one ton of CO2 and hence it creates disturbance in natural global system. So, there is need of alternative materials which can replace cement. Previous researches shows number of materials such as Fly Ash, Silica Fume, and Sugarcane Baggase Ash etc may be used as a replacement of cement. India is second largest country which produce Sugar and hence sugar waste is also produced in very large quantity. Previous researches shows that Sugarcane Ash may be replaced by cement up to certain percentages. The higher percentage may lead the brittle failure of Concrete which may be overcomed by the addition of Steel Fiber and good range Super plasticizer to get Self Compacting nature of Concrete. Here an attempt is made to collect the detailed research overview for Sugarcane Baggase Ash as a replacement of cement along with the separate study of Steel Fiber reinforced Concrete. This would be helpful for fiber reinforced concrete using alternative materials.
