The research object is concrete with supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) such as bentonite clay and quarry dust. impact of incorporating these SCMs on fresh properties, compressive, flexural, split tensile strengths, acid resistance was investigated. Microstructural analysis using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) X-ray radiography were used. Varying proportions (5%–20%) incorporated into the mix while maintaining a constant water-to-cement ratio. Key findings reveal 7.31% increase in compressive strength, significant 19.7% improvement flexural enhanced resistance. Utilizing Response Surface Methodology (RSM), optimal design for achieving superior mechanical strength identified. quadratic model RSM indicated that combination 10.29% clay, 7.20% dust, 8.19% fine aggregate replacement yielded highest strength. Predictive experimental results demonstrated strong agreement. Compared to reference concrete, optimized samples exhibited increases 18.08%, 33.60%, 11.15% respectively. This demonstrates potential locally available viable sustainable alternatives production, offering improved performance without compromising

Since the Palaeozoic era, fire as a potent driver of environmental changes, has dramatically shaped terrestrial ecosystems. Fire affects soil structure and composition, which in turn floral diversity an area. This research work aims to examine impact on vegetation physicochemical nature fire-affected fire-free sites across Mahaban surrounding forests, Swabi District, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Quadrat quantitative ecological techniques were used for sampling sites. In total, 219 plant species belonging 173 genera 70 families recorded. Among species, recorded from remaining 122 The incidence results elevated organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus, lower calcium carbonate concentrations soil. greatest richness evenness observed Our study concludes that influence edaphic topographic factors varies between significantly altered nutrient availability studied region, this is confirmed by analysis research. It suggested further field ecology can produce valuable insights.
