Extruded Cellular Fly Ash Construction Materials

Abstract

dc:description

Bulk densities and crushing strengths of honeycomb samples consolidated by sintering and by autoclaving were studied as a function of their respective compositions and processing conditions. Typical bulk densities, crushing strengths, and SDR obtained were 1.13 g/cm$\sp3,$ 97 MPa (14,100 psi), and 8750 m for autoclaved honeycombs, and 1.32 g/cm$\sp3,$ 156 MPa (22,600 psi), and 12,000 m for sintered honeycombs. The SDR values obtained exceeded the SDR of construction-grade pine (6375 m).
