description The utilisation of pozzolanic materials in concrete construction has become increasingly widespread in recent years, and this trend is expected to continue in the years ahead because of technological, economical and ecological advantages of the materials.

Two concrete mixes namely concrete with 100% OPC, as control and concrete with 70% OPC and 30% POFA were prepared, and the temperature rise due to heat of hydration in both the mixes was recorded.
