Abstract
The use of stone materials such as basalt stone and andesite stone is widely used in Hindu temples due to their benefits such as the composition and specific texture that can be sculpted. The need for stone materials is increasing along with the increased need for Hindu temples (Pelinggih) on the market. The major problem that is currently occurring is the availability of several types of stones is limited and the mining process of raw stone greatly affects the conditions of the surrounding environment. Thus based on this, it is necessary to study alternative environmental materials that can be used as Pelinggih. This research focused on studying the possibility of using mixed fly ash and cement in Hindu temples using qualitative methods. Fly ash by-product is usually made by mixing the material with cement and other materials. Fly ash is solid waste resulting from the combustion process in the furnace at power plants. Fly ash has cementitious and pozzolanic properties that react when mixed with cement and water. Fly ash by-product applications such as water treatment, ceramic industry, and fly ash for the improvement of degraded soil. Based on this study, it is possible to use mixed fly ash and cement to use as pelinggih.
