Evaluación de la sílice obtenida de un subproducto industrial en pastas y morteros de cemento Portland

In the present paper, the results of properties such as compression strength and fluidity in mortar; along with consistency, setting times and viscosity in pastes are shown. All these properties were tested with the addition of an artificial pozzolan like rice husk ash (RHA), which is an agro industrial by product of a Colombian rice processor. The RHA was obtained from a thermal and milling process.
