— Agricultural and industrial by-products are commonly used in concrete production as cement replacementmaterial as mineral admixtures to enhance both fresh and hardened properties of concrete as well as to save theenvironment from the negative effects caused by their disposal. Utilization of these waste products in the industry hasbeen the focus of Research for economic, environmental, and technical reasons. Sugarcane Bagasse Ash (SCBA) andglass powder is one of the promising material, with its potential proved to be used as a partial replacement of cement aswell as mineral admixtures for producing concrete; properties of such concrete depend on the chemical composition,fineness, specific surface area of SCBA and glass powder. This report aims to study the present Scenario of Sugarcaneand SCBA production all over the world and in India to understand the potential of SCBA and its use in cementitioussystem. The present study deals with effect of use of as received SCBA and burnt and ground SCBA as cementreplacement material on properties of cement and cement mortar. Therefore, this study attempts to make use of thebagasse ash produced in India mainly in state of Maharashtra as a pozzolanic material to replace cement. Chemical andphysical composition of SCBA is found out. An experimental investigation was carried out to examine the impact ofreplacing cement by bagasse ash and glass powder to the mechanical and physical properties of pastes and mortars,fresh and harden concrete such as consistency, setting time and workability, compressive strength. Sugarcane BagasseAsh and waste glass powder used by replacing OPC at 5%, 10% 15%, 20%, 25% and 30%. It’s found that the strengthincreases with addition of Sugarcane Bagasse Ash and waste glass powder at 5%, 10% 15% and 20% after that declinesat 25% and 30%
