Flowable Fill - Fly Ash Flowable Fill Mixes

Fly Ash Flowable Fill Mixes

There are two basic types of flowable fill mixes that contain fly ash: high fly ash content mixes and low fly ash content mixes.

There are no specific requirements for the types of fly ash that may be used in flowable fill mixtures. "Low lime" or Class F fly ash is well suited for use in high fly ash content mixes, but can also be used in low fly ash content mixes. "High lime" or Class C fly ash, because it is usually self-cementing, is almost always used only in low fly ash content flowable fill mixes. There is also a flowable fill product in which both Class F and Class C fly ash are used in varying mix proportions.

Famous quotes containing the words fly, ash and/or fill:

    Sisters are always drying their hair.
    Locked into rooms, alone,
    They pose at the mirror, shoulders bare,
    Trying this way and that their hair,
    Or fly importunate down the stair
    To answer the telephone.
    Phyllis McGinley (1905–1978)

    Thoth, Hermes, the stylus,
    the palette, the pen, the quill endure,
    though our books are a floor
    of smouldering ash under our feet.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    We fill the hands and nurseries of our children with all manner of dolls, drums, and horses, withdrawing their eyes from the plain face and sufficing objects of nature, the sun, and moon, the animals, the water, and stones, which should be their toys.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
