Using metakaolin to improve the compressive strength and the durability of fly ash based concrete

Partial replacement of Portland cement by pozzolanic and cimentitious by-products or mineral additions that allow for carbon dioxide emission reductions is a major issue in the current climate change context. However, the use of low pozzolanic activity by-products like fly ash can cause a decrease r...
