%X In this study, the effect of sugar cane bagasse ash (SCBA) on chloride penetration resistance of concrete was investigated. 100-mm side cubes were cast and cured in water for 28 days followed by six months curing in 4 NaCl solution. The resistance to chloride penetration was assessed by measuring the chloride penetration depth, weight loss, compressive strength loss and bond strength loss. Chloride penetration depth was measured using AgNO3-based method. It was obtained that inclusion of SCBA in concrete significantly reduced the chloride penetration depth, weight loss, compressive strength loss and bond loss that was attributed to the fine particles of SCBA that filled up the pores and prevented the chloride ingress in the concrete. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
