I. INTRODUCTION
Cement is a very valuable commodity as it can be used to
construct structurally sound buildings and infrastructure.
However, in many developing countries cement is expensive
due to the limited local resources in producing enough cement.
For a country to meet the demand of this material, it has
therefore to be imported. In rice producing countries, rice husk
ash, a material naturally high in silica, can be used as a
supplementary cement material and can substitute a portion of
cement in concrete without sacrificing the compressive
strength [1].
The Philippines is a major agribusiness sector, which has
achieved remarkable success over the years. Its economic
