Therefore, studies are carried out on different materials to reduce PC consumption. The effect levels of the wood bottom ash (WBA) ratio and specimen age on the response variables (compressive strength, flexural strength, and ultrasonic pulse velocity) were investigated in this study. Mortar specimens were produced using PC, WBA, CEN standard sand, and distilled water. The produced specimens were cured in water until the test day. WBA ratios are 0%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 35% and 50% by weight of binder. As a result, it was determined that the optimum WBA ratio was 5%. In addition, R2 values of response variables were found to be high (ultrasonic pulsed wave velocity; 0.8925, flexural strength; 0.9356, compressive strength; 0.9404) by analysis of variance (ANOVA). This shows that the models have a high correlation. Moreover, the terms added to the models have a significant effect on the responses.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF MORTARS CONTAINING WOOD BOTTOM ASH INSTEAD OF CEMENTArticle2534915021122441
