Can fly ash be used in reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete?
There are experimental results showing that the flyash can be used up to 30 % as a cement replacement material. Some up to 80 % flyash has certain properties and it can be used some percent to the concrete mix as a admixture.. Proper trial mix and test shall be carried out for required strength and durability..

What is a plastic admixture?
This is a general term most commonly used in relation to concrete. An admixture is simply a mixture of two or more substances. A plastic substance is simply one which may be formed or moulded with relative ease. In concrete terminology, a plastic admixture is a certain mixture which has properties of extended setting time or workability. This is desirable because there may be some time between the concrete being mixed at the factory works and it being laid or moulded on the required site. The term plastic admixture usually refers to the substances added to ordinary concrete (additives).
