Due to the vast production of sugar cane in India, huge amount of sugarcane bagasse is being produced and which is a waste product coming out of sugar industries. Sugarcane bagasse ash is a byproduct of sugar factories found after burning sugarcane bagasse. Sugarcane bagasse is a fibrous waste product of sugar refining industry along with ethanol vapor. The utilization of industrial and agricultural waste produced by industrial process has been focus to waste reduction. The present study has been focused on assessing performance of SCBA concrete in different curing environments by the partial replacement of ordinary Portland cement with different weight percentages of SCBA (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%). The tests were conducted on cubes and cylinders and prisms at various ages of concrete i.e., 7, 28 and 56 days to assess the strength aspects of SCBA concrete. From the present study it is evident that, utilization of waste material sugar cane bagasse ash can be advantageously used as a replacement of cement up to 5% without reduction in strength of concrete. Also, it can be observed that, SCBA concrete performed better even in aggressive environments when compared to ordinary concrete even at later stages.
