Abstract

Fly ash and glass waste can pose a significant environmental problem, as they cannot naturally decompose in the environment. This occurs due to the presence of pozzolan and silica in the waste. The purpose of this study is to categorize lightweight concrete and evaluate its properties, including density, compressive strength, and water absorption when incorporating additional fly ash and glass waste. This research uses experimental methods in the laboratory with a total of 72 samples with dimensions (25x25x50) mm in the form of blocks. Concrete samples were divided into two variations of storage duration, namely 21 days and 28 days, and given the same treatment and testing. The fly ash mixture variations used in this study were 0%, 20%, 40%, and 60%, with each variation consisting of 3 samples. The results obtained in this study indicate that, when viewed in terms of age, concrete with a storage period of 28 days exhibits better quality than concrete with a 21-day storage period. Based on the density value, both 21-day-old and 28-day-old concrete samples fall within the quality category of lightweight concrete, as per category A. When viewed from the compressive strength value, 21-day-old and 28-day-old concrete are of C quality. Regarding water absorption, the best value is achieved by the concrete mix with a 20% fly ash content and an 11% water absorption rate. When compared with concrete samples that do not contain fly ash, it is known that the test results on concrete samples without fly ash (0%) have higher compressive strength and density values, and the percentage of water absorption is by SNI standards.
