| Abstract | ||
| The current study is concerning with the effect of adding (VSW 2016) to the concrete properties for both fresh and hardened states, concerning of maximizing the benefits from the vinasse liquid, which is produced in Egyptian Sugar & Integrated Industries Company (ESIIC). This is due to the fact that vinasse is by a-product from fermentation and distillation of the Molasses liquid which is the sugar industry product. Vinasse liquid is a secondary product of sugar industry. It consists of mixture from water, organic material and inorganic slats. Some pre-experiments have been carried out on the (VSW 2016) liquid as a plasticizer for mixtures of cements. It was proved from primary results that the (VSW 2016) solution has improved the consistency characteristics and compressive strength of concrete. These results are considered promising results for cement mixtures in general and encouraged continuing the detailed studies to assure the efficient use of (VSW 2016) addition in different applications of building and housing works. Therefore, the main purpose of this research is to study experimentally the mechanism effect of suggested admixture (VSW 2016) on concrete characteristics. | ||
