This study investigated the effect of wood ash as a partial replacement for cement in concrete. Concrete cubes were made with 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40% replacements of cement with wood ash by weight. The cubes were tested for compressive strength at 7 and 28 days. Results showed that compressive strength initially decreased with higher wood ash content but improved significantly after 28 days. The 20% wood ash mix performed best, showing improvements in compressive strength over normal concrete at 28 days. It was concluded that 20% is the optimum wood ash replacement amount to gain strength benefits while using less cement.
