use of ash from sugarcane bagasse (SCBA) and blast furnace slag in self-consolidating concrete (SCC), as well as to look into the existing research on their usage in cementitious materials. This study looks at previous research on SCBA and GGBS concrete and focuses on the major components of SCBA and GGBS material, the hydraulic reaction of SCBA and GGBS in concrete, and the toughness properties of SCBA as well as GGBS concrete. According to the literature review, using SCBA and GGBS in concrete buildings will be both cost-effective and ecologically friendly. The second commonest material in the world, after water, is cement, which is the most essential element of the concrete mix for buildings. However, we are aware that it causes significant environmental damage due to the production of carbon dioxide during the cement-making process. According to the study, every ton of cement manufactured releases half a ton of pollutants, which is a significant amount of carbon dioxide; hence, immediate intervention is required. Because cement demand and usage are increasing on a daily basis, it is critical to find a substitute binding substance that can replace cement. Mineral admixtures such as industrial and agricultural wastes can be utilized in concrete composites since they have comparable chemical characteristics to cement and the same pozzolanic activity. The study concentrated on the fundamental characteristics of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) made using additives such as blast furnace slag and bagasse ash. Many research studies have been conducted on the fundamental precepts of self-consolidating concrete (SCC), which was created by incorporating blast furnace slag and bagasse ash as extra cementitious components.
Reusing industrial and agricultural waste in concrete composites as a sustainable alternative to traditional disposal methods like composting, incineration, and landfill dumping helps to alleviate the pollution issue that results from these methods. By increasing the amount of SCBA and GGBS, cement can be substituted for SCBA and GGBS to achieve the best compressive strength [10]. The W/C ratio can be decreased by adding mineral admixtures like SCBA and GGBS, and the workability can be improved by adding the superplasticizer dosage. In applications involving civil infrastructure, SCBA and GGBS may be the best options. Due to advantages in durability, sustainability, appearance, and strength gained by partially replacing with cement, the scopes of SCBA and GGBS are favourable, because it has qualities similar to cement, we may use industrial and agricultural waste in concrete composites. The utilization of industrial byproducts as supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) is gaining widespread attention due to its potential for sustainable development in the construction industry. Blast furnace slag and bagasse ash (SCBA) have emerged as viable alternatives due to their capacity to improve concrete durability as well as strength. GGBS is a powder-form byproduct of the metals sector that can partially replace Portland cement in concrete manufacture. SCBA, a byproduct of the sugarcane industry, on the reverse side, is a cementitious substance that may be utilized as a partial substitute for concrete. In conclusion, the utilization of GGBS and SCBA as SCMs in concrete production has the potential to offer sustainable solutions to the construction industry by improving the strength and durability of concrete while reducing its carbon footprint. The synergy between these two materials, along with their pozzolanic and hydraulic properties, can lead to the production of denser, more durable, and sustainable concrete. Therefore, the use of GGBS and SCBA in concrete production should be encouraged as an environmentally friendly approach to construction.

1. INTRODUCTION In place of cement, fine aggregates, coarse aggregates, and reinforcing elements, several industrial and agricultural waste products are already employed in concrete. This review study illustrates the partial substitution of SCBA and GGBS for cement and sand in concrete. The durability of various qualities of freshly
