Abstract
In this paper, the durability properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC) containing rice husk ash (RHA), metakaolin (MK) and a combination of MK and RHA (1:1 ratio) were evaluated and their relationships discussed. The durability properties of the various mixtures were studied. The results showed that SCC blended with RHA and a combination of RHA and MK showed a considerable improvement in durability than unblended SCC (100% OPC). However, the performance of SCC blended with MK was unsatisfactory in an acid environment. In addition, it was found that resistance to acid attack was directly related to the silica ratio (SR).
