CE 1.1 Project InformationName of the project: Evaluation of Sorptivity and Water Absorption of Concrete withPartial Replacement of Cement with Fly AshLocation of the project: [PLEASE FILL]Project Duration: [PLEASE FILL]Organization: [PLEASE FILL]Role and Designation during the time: Team MemberCE 1.2 Project BackgroundCE 1.2.1 Characteristics of the projectThe use of concrete has been in the world for a long time. Concrete can be said to be amaterial porous in nature that can interact with the surrounding environment. For a concretematerial, the durability of the concrete can be meant to be highly dependent on the amount ofmoisture, and gaseous compounds flow in and around the concrete. The permeability of theconcrete can be defined as the capacity with the concrete is transferring the water and gaseoussubstance through the cement materials. Sorptivity can be identified with the help of the uptakecapacity of unsaturated and hardened concrete. The Sorptivity is a sample parameter that isrecently being used in the measurement of the concrete resistance to the exposure to theenvironmental factors.

CE 1.2.2 Objectives developed for the projectThe objectives which had been designed for the production of this project research paperare as follows:• To find an efficient way to substitute cement with fly ash in concrete• To produce the results of experimentation with the help of Sorptivity test.CE 1.2.3 My area of workFor the completion of the project, I had worked on the finding of the water absorption testand the Sorptivity test on the cement blocks. This was the main research topic for our project. Ihad tested out all the cement blocks created and consequently tabulated the data for inclusion inthe project documentation. The details of the working procedure had been included in thedocumentation for my university submission.
