Properties of concrete with different percentange of the rice husk ash (RHA) as partial cement replacement
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2015)
The use of pozzolanic material from waste product as partial cement replacement in concrete contribute to reduce the environmental, economic problem through their waste and as well enhance the strength and properties of ...
Utilization of recycled glass waste as partial replacement of fine aggregate in concrete production
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd., 2015)
Glass dust waste creates chronic environmental problems, mainly due to the inconsistency of waste glass streams. Glass is widely used in our lives through manufactured products such as sheet glass, bottles, glassware, and ...

(Elsevier, 2014-01)
This paper reports a comparative study of the influence of elevated temperature on geopolymer paste, mortars and lightweight aggregate geopolymer concrete (LWAGC) systems made by using fly ash (FA) as only source material. ...
Development and properties of coconut fiber reinforced composite cement with the addition of fly ash
(Taylor and Francis, 2012)
In this paper, the effectiveness utilization of agricultural wastes and industrial wastes in the composite cement has been studied in terms of physical and mechanical properties. Twenty weight percent of fly ash and 80 wt.% ...
Microstructure study on optimization of high strength fly ash based geopolymer
(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
The compressive strength and microstructural characteristics of fly ash based geopolymer with alkaline activator solution were investigated. The sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate were mixed together to form an alkaline ...
Preliminary study on compressive strength of modified Polystyrene (MPS) as lightweight aggregate
(Universiti Malaysia Perlis, 2008-03-15)
This research investigates the possibility of making polystyrene as lightweight aggregate. Low density is the advantage of polystyrene. Waste polystyrene foam is modified and sintered in the furnace at the temperatures ...
Properties of concrete containing rice husk ash under sodium chloride subjected to wetting and drying
(Elsevier B.V., 2012)
In this study, the influences of different replacement levels of RHA blended cement concrete subjected to 5% NaCl solution with drying-wetting cycles was evaluated. For parametric study, RHA was used as a Portland cement ...
Dolomite quarry waste as sand replacement in sand brick
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2016)
Dolomite is a sedimentary rock resulting from the deposition of river or sea takes millions of years. The quarry waste from dolomite production had been used to replace sand in order to study the performance of modified ...
