No. CDO/SE(RR)/Fly Ash (Main)/102 dated the 9/4/2009 CIRCULAR

Subject: Use of Fly Ash Blended Cements in RCC Structures. The existing guidelines in circular on “Use of flyash in RCC structures” issued earlier vide no. CDO/SE(RR)/Flyash (Main)/387 dated 13/5/2004 have been reviewed based on laboratory studies carried out by the department on sample of cement concrete at SERC Chennai, which was both by admixing Flyash from different source in Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) and also by using commercially available flyash blended cements of different manufactures conforming to IS 1489 (Part-I) [popularly known as Portland Pozzolana Cements (PPC)]. In supersession thereof including all available circular/instructions issued in past by department on the subject, Director General (Works), CPWD is pleased to issue following guidelines for use of flyash and also use of PPC in RCC structures. 1.0 General:

1.1 IS:456-2000 Code of Practice for plain and Reinforced Concrete (as amended up to date) shall be followed in regard to Concrete Mix Proportion and its production as under: 1.1.1 The concrete mix design shall be done as “Design Mix Concrete” as prescribed in

clause-9 of IS 456 mentioned above. 1.1.2 Concrete shall be manufactured in accordance with clause 10 of above mentioned

IS:456 covering quality assurance measures both technical and organizational, which shall also necessarily require a qualified Concrete Technologist to be available during manufacture of concrete for certification of quality of concrete.

1.2 Minimum M25 grade of concrete shall be used in all structural elements made with RCC both in load bearing and framed structure.

1.3 The mechanical properties such as modulus of elasticity, tensile strength, creep and shrinkage of flyash mixed concrete or concrete using flyash blended cements (PPCs) are not likely to be significantly different and their values are to be taken same as those used for concrete made with OPC.

1.4 To control higher rate of carbonation in early ages of concrete both in flyash admixed as well as PPC based concrete, water/binder ratio shall be kept as low as possible, which shall be closely mentioned during concrete manufacture.

If necessitated due to low water/binder ratio, required workability shall be achieved by use of chloride free chemical admixtures conforming to IS:9103. The compatibilityofchemical admixtures and super platicizers with each set OPC, fly ash and/or PPC received from different source shall be ensured by trials.

1.5 In environment subjected to aggressive chloride or sulphate attack in particular, use of flyash admixed or PPC based concrete is recommended. In cases, where structural concrete is exposed to excessive magnesium sulphate, flyash substitution/ content shall be limited to 18% by weight. Special type of cement with low C3A content may also be alternatively used. Durability criteria like minimum binder content and maximum water/binder ratio also need to be given due consideration in such environment.

1.6 Wet curing period shall be enhanced to a minimum of 10 days or its equivalent. In hot & arid regions, the minimum curing period shall be 14 days or its equivalent.

2.0 Use of Flyash Admixed Cement Concrete (FACC) in RCC structures:

There shall be no bar on use of FACC in RCC structures subject to following additional condinations: 2.1 Flyash shall have its chemical characteristics and physical requirements etc. conforming to

IS: 3812 (Part-I) and shall be duly certified.

(39) 2.2 To ensure uniform blending of fly ash with cement in conformity with IS:456, a specific

facility needs to be created at site with complete computerized automated process control to achieve design quality or with similar facility from Ready Mix Concrete (RMC) plants.

2.3 As per IS:1489 (Part-I), maximum 35% of OPC by mass is permitted to be substituted with flyash conforming to IS:3812 (Part-I) and same is reiterated.

2.4 Separate storage for dry flyash shall be provided. Storage bins or silos shall be weather proof and permit a free flow and efficient discharge of flyash. The filter or dust control system provided in the bins or silos shall be of sufficient size to allow delivery of flyash maintained at specified pressure to prevent undue emission of flyash dust, which may interfere weighing accuracy.

3.0 Use of Fly Ash Blended Cement Concrete (PPCC) in RCC Structures. 3.1 Subject to General Guidelines detailed out as above, PPC manufactured conforming to

IS:1489 (Part-I) shall be treated at par with OPC for manufacure of Design Mix Concrete for structural use in RCC.

3.2 Till the time, BIS makes it mandatory to print the % age of flyash on each bag of cement, the certificate from the PPC manufacturer indicating the same shall be insisted upon before allowing use of such cements in works.

3.3 While using PPC for structural concrete work, no further admixing of flyash shall be permitted.

All concerned are rquested to circular its contents to all engineers under their control.

(49) ADDENDUM TO CPWD SPECIFICATION 1996 VOL-II UNDER

S.H.: V- R.C.C. WORK THERMO MECHANICALLY TREATED BARS (TMT-BARS) 1.0 Introduction: Thermo Mechanically Treated (TMT) Bars is a recent technological advancement for production of high strength deformed steel has for concrete reinforcement in this process higher strength is obtained by thermo mechanical treatment, wherein the steel has get intensive cooling immediately after rolling. Sudden reduction in temperature creates a hardened surface layer with the internal core still being hot. While further cooling in atmosphere, tempering takes place by the heat from the core. This process is expected to improve the properties of strength and ductility of the bars. 2.0 Advantage: Generally, the higher strength in steel can be obtained by increasing carbon content, Micro alloying, Thermo Mechanical Treatment or Cold Twisting So far in India, cold twisting of bars was used extensively for production of high strength bars. These bars can easily be identified by the two main ribs being helical, where as in hot rolled bars these ribs are straight. In the case of TMT Bars the higher strength is obtained by thermo mechanical treatment and the Carbon content also has been brought down leading to improved Ductility. 3.0 Permission to Use. However, it may be noted that deliberations are going on at the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), for making appropriate provisions in relevant BIS codes and it is expected that this will be done shortly. Meanwhile the properties of these bars have been examined in this office and it has now been decided that these bars may be allowed to be used in CPWD works. 4.0 Properties. This steel is currently being produced in various grades by M/s Steel Authority of India Ltd. (SAIL), M/s TATA Steel and M/s Rashtriya Ispat Nigam Ltd. The trade names for these bars are SAIL-TMT, TISCON-TMT and REBARS respectively. The grades, chemical properties and mechanical properties are indicated in table I, II, & III.

5.1 Standard table of SP 16 (Design Aid to IS: 456) can be used for utilising these bars in the design process. However, there are limitations when it comes to using the strengths higher than 415 MPa in Earth Quake Prone areas IS : 13920 for bids using strengths higher than 415 MPa under following situations. I The structure is located in seismic zone IV & V. II The Structure is located in Seismic zone – III and has the importance factor (I greater than 1.0 III The structure is located in seismic zone-III and is an industrial structure. IV The structure is located in seismic zone – III and is more than 5 storeys high.

(50) While every care shall be taken to avoid mixing different types and grades of bars in the same structural members as main reinforcement to satisfy clause 25.1 of IS: 456 the Technical Circular No. 9, issued by CDO vide EE(D) III/IJS/80/199-298 dated 08.04.82 can be used as a guide under exigencies where two grades/types of bars are to be used in the same building.

5.2 This circular does not cover use of corrosion Resistant Steel (CRS) bars. 6.0 Identification Care shall also be taken to properly identify these bars at site. The staff shall be specially trained for looking for identification make on these bars. While TISCON Bars are available with embossed marks on their bars (Fig. 10, Ib) SAIL – TMT are yet to be so. Currently SAIL is providing Burdled Bars which are colour coded Yellow for TMT 500 and Green for TMT 550 (No colour code for TMT 415) at the cut face at ends alongwith a tally indicating the grade with each bundle, Rashtriya Ispat Nigam’s rebar can be identified with in-Signia which is embossed on every rebar during the rolling process itself (Flg. 1c). However, the grade of rebar can be identified by means of colour coding Grade Fe 415 is coded with Ellue colour and Fe 500 is coded with Blue-Green colour. Hence it will be advisable to see that only one type/grade of bars are brought to site and used in the project after conducting tests for each lot.
