In this study, the particle size distribution (PSD) of class F and C fly ash (FA) was optimized using theory of the Fuller-Thompson. After defining the optimal size distribution, the distribution modulus (q) of 0.4 yields the best mechanical property results. The freeze–thaw up to 300 cycles on mechanical and permeability properties of 90-day cementitious composites incorporating optimized class F and C fly ash (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30% by weight of cement) were investigated. Optimized FA has improved the mechanical and permeability properties of cementitious composites under freeze–thaw cycling by ensuring a better filler effect. The cementitious composite mortars with 20% optimized class C fly ash and class F fly ash replacement yielded high compactness and better mechanical properties than the control cementitious composite mortars without any fly ash replacement after 90 days. Finding the best particle size distribution of FA providing high compactness will save cement, reduce the carbon dioxide (CO2) emission that pollutes the environment in cement production, and contribute to the economy and environment.
