Pakistan: The upcoming Diamer Basha Dam and 21MW Tangir Hydropower Project will use concrete made from Ordinary Portland Cement mixed with fly ash and other additives. The Frontier Works Organisation said, “This reduces thermal loads on the dam and reduces chances of thermal cracking,” according to China Daily News. The Chinese-backed project is scheduled for completion in 2028.
