Ductile self compacting concrete (DSCC) is one of the advanced materials which combines self compacting abilities and ductility to address the current industry problems. As the fly ash and microwave incinerated rice husk ash (MIRHA) are beneficial to the properties of concrete, it has led to a research on the effects of ternary blends of MIRHA, fly ash and cement in DSCC. Up to 20 of cement in DSCC was replaced with MIRHA and fly ash with 10 by weight respectively whilst maintaining satisfactory self compacting abilities. The effects of MIRHA and fly ash on mechanical strength and chloride penetration depth of DSCC were determined. The control DSCC mix was compared with the DSCC mix with MIRHA and fly ash. The results shown that substitution of MIRHA and fly ash into DSCC gave positive effects, it improved the mechanical properties and chloride permeability. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
