Due to rapid industrialisation the production of waste is also getting increased in leaps and bounds. Pond ash is one of the wastes that is getting dumped in open areas which is produced from thermal power plants. Several attempts were made to utilize the pond ash as replacement to sand and cement. With advancement in technology new methods were introduced to obtain the 28 days compressive strength of concrete in 28 hours(As per IS 9013-1978-Method of making, curing and determining compressive strength of accelerated cured concrete test specimens). In the present study various proportions of pond ash (15%, 20%, 25%, 35%) as replacement to sand in M30 Grade concrete is considered. Proper proportions were obtained after getting a Mix Design and compressive strength of cubes were calculated by CTM for various curing periods (7, 14,28days).Effect of curing is evaluated in our study by using Accelerated Curing Tank.
