| Abstract | India is a major rice producing country and the husk generated during millings is mostly used as fuel in the boilers for processing paddy, producing energy through direct combustion and/or by gasification. About 20 million tonnes of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) is produced annually and is a great environ mental threat, causing damage to the land and the surrounding area in which it is dumped. In the conversion of rice husks to ash, the combustion process removes the organic matter and leaves silica rich residue. The fiber inclusions increase the strength of the cement-stabilized specimens as well as that of the ash-soil specimens and change their brittle behavior to ductile behavior. In this paper, the effect of different contents of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) added to concrete containing super plasticizer and with and without plastic fibers on its compressive strength has been studied. Samples with 3%, 5%, 7%, 10%, 12% and 15% content of RHA replacing the cement have been tested. The results have been compared with those for the control sample and viability of adding RHA to concrete has been studied. It was observed that up to 10% of cement can be replaced with RHA mixed with plastic fibres with nearly equivalent compressive strength. Further replacement of cement up to 15% will result in concrete of fair compressive strength. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
