Rice husk ash is a component that has chemical elements (Oxides) similar to Portland cement, making it a beneficial pozzolanic material for concrete. That is why we seek to give a use to what can be classified as “waste” and make it another alternative for the world of concrete technology. In our La Libertad region we observe large rice growing areas, one of them being the Jequetepeque valley, where large companies select the raw material that is rice grains, often leaving aside the waste that remains: the rice husk. The main objective of this Thesis is to know the influence of rice husk ash on the setting times of Portland cement type I. Subsequently, these results will be implemented in the design of a concrete f'c= 280 kg/cm2 for evaluate its influence on final costs. Said ash will be obtained from the rice-growing areas of the Jequetepeque valley, specifically from the city of Chepén. In this research, we first proceeded to obtain the chemical characterization of the rice husk ash that was used during the study, to observe each component present in this pozzolan and be able to classify it according to ASTM C 618-19. Subsequently, the normal cement consistency test was carried out, where we determined that the correct fluidity occurred with the water-cement ratio (w/c) of 0.30. With this data obtained, the main test of this thesis was carried out, which is to determine the setting times. Based on previous studies where it was concluded that concrete achieves its highest compressive strength by replacing 5% rice husk ash with cement, we decided to use the percentages of 3%, 4% and 5% for the Needle Test. Vicat. A total of 12 samples were made, 3 for the pattern paste design, another 3 for the design that had 3% RHA, 3 for the one that contained 4%, and 3 for the one with 5%. The results determined that the master concrete had an initial setting of 186 minutes and a final setting of 290 minutes. The design with 3% RHA had an initial and final setting of 183 and 260 minutes, respectively. The paste with 4% RHA reached an initial setting of 185 minutes and a final setting of 275 minutes. Finally, the test that presented 5% RHA had 178 minutes and 295 minutes of initial and final setting, respectively. Thus, concluding that the design that performed best was the one that presented 3% rice husk ash. After obtaining the raw materials for the concrete (the aggregates), they were tested to determine that they meet all the requirements and tests of the standard. viii With the results obtained, the concrete f'c = 280 kg/cm2 was designed following the instructions of ACI 211. Finally, the unit costs per m3 were determined both for the standard design f'c = 280 kg/cm2 and for those with 3%, 4% and 5% of rice husk ash, observing that the costs decrease for the three designs with RHA percentages due to the low cost of the aforementioned pozzolanic element. The lowest design was the 5% design costing S/ 525.30, followed by the 4% design with a cost of S/ 526.51, and finally the design with 3% RHA with a value of S/ 527.73 per m3, in comparison to the standard model that had a cost of S/ 531.36
