Abstract :
Concrete is one of the civil works construction materials that play an
important role in construction such as houses, buildings, roads, bridges, dams,
ports and others. Concrete k-400 is one type of pre-stressed concrete, namely for
the benefit of construction that has a special, high-strength concrete is usually
used for the manufacture of highways, suspension bridges and underpasses.
The ashes from the brick kiln are waste that can be used as an added
material, where the ash contains silica which can be mixed in the concrete
mixture. The ash was tested in the BARISTAND INDUSTRIAL PALEMBANG
laboratory which obtained 7.69 silica results. So the ashes from the brick kiln can
be used in concrete mixes.
From the results of research conducted in the laboratory, it was found
that the average compressive strength test at the age of 28 days with the variation
of Normal Concrete was 427.76 kg / cm2, Normal Concrete + ash of 4% brick
combustion by 408.24 kg / cm2. Normal concrete + ash 5% brick kiln remaining
396.42 kg / cm2, Normal concrete + 6% brick kiln remaining ash by 382.97 kg /
cm2, Normal concrete + 7% brick kiln remaining ash by 363.06 kg / cm2,
Concrete normal + ash of brick combustion 8% by 347.99 kg / cm2, where the
results have decreased from normal concrete so that the ashes of brick combustion
does not affect the compressive strength of concrete.
