Physical-mechanical assessment for soil-cement blocks including rice husk ash

Despite its pozzolan properties, a great percentage of rice husk ash (RHA) is disposed as waste, thus generating adverse environmental impacts. This study was intended to assess compressive strength and absorption in soil-cement block when including RHA as a substitute for Portland cement (PC). This...
