Abstract:In this work, the comparative study of the effect of seawater and normal water on concrete was investigated. This paper represents the speculation research on compressive strength and non-destructive test of concrete in addition with fly-ash class C 20% and 30%. Concrete cubes were cast using normal water for a mix of M-20 & M-30 with 0.45 water cement ratio. This concrete cubes were cured using normal water and seawater. A total specimen of 72 cubes for reference concrete was cast forM-20 & M-30 mix and exposed to a period of 28thday and 84th day. The reference concrete was prepared with OPC-43 grade in addition with fly-ash class C 20% and 30% using normal water and seawater for curing. Further, the displayed measured results; show that the diffusivity for sea water contents decreases with increasing 20 % fly-ash class C in M30 grade of concrete.
