Abstract


This study examines effect of peat water to the setting time and compressive strength of PCC concrete, and PCC fly ash concrete (PCC-FA). In this study, fly ash was used to replace 25%
of weight of cement. This specimen was designed to have the compressive strength of 28 MPa at 28 days. All specimens were cured with two different curing system, static and wet-dry
system. The concrete sample were cured continuously on peat water for 7 and 28 days. While on wet-dry system, the samples were cured by turns wet (soaked on peat water) and dry for 7
and 28 days. Peat water had a pH value of 3.0-5.0. The results showed that the addition of fly ash was able to extend the final setting time from 113 minutes to 208 minutes. The compressive strength of PCC (static), PCC-FA (static), and PCC-FA (wet-dry) were
increased at 28 days immersion in peat water with each increase of 7.24%, 20.45% and 12.89%, respectively. While the compressive strength of PCC concrete (wet-dry) was decreased at 28 days immersion in peat water with a decrease of 4.31%. Based on the test results, it was concluded that the wet-dry cycle adversely affected the concrete strength; however, fly ash addition in the mixture can increase the concrete resistance from the wet-dry
cycle.
