Properties of local pozzolanic materials for use in concrete
Pozzolana blended with lime was found to give a strong and durable binding material. The use of pozzolanas has persisted to this day. This being mainly due to the beneficial properties they give to concrete. Use of pozzolanas may also give an economical concrete mix. In the early days. natural pozzolanas mainly of volcanic origin were used. Today.
