Overview of supplementary cementitious materials usage in lightweight aggregate concrete

TL;DR: In this paper, a review summarizes previous findings on the utilization of different types of SCM (such as silica fume, fly ash, ground granulated blast furnace slag, metakaolin, etc.) in lightweight aggregate concrete as well as the effects on the resulting concrete performances, namely the fresh, mechanical and durability properties.

Shear Behaviour of Reinforced Palm Kernel ShellConcrete Beams

TL;DR: In this paper, the shear behaviour of palm kernel shell concrete (PKSC) beams prepared using palm kernel shells (PKS) as lightweight aggregate (LWA) is reported.

Efficiency of Supplementary Cementitious Materials and Natural Fiber on Mechanical Performance of Concrete

TL;DR: In this paper, the mechanical properties of bagasse ash plain concrete and basalt fiber-reinforced concrete (SFBA-BFRC) are studied. And the results indicated that the results of the concrete mix were generally improved in comparison with those of SFBA-PC.

Concrete from an agricultural waste-oil palm shell (OPS)

TL;DR: In this paper, a concrete using oil palm shell (OPS) as coarse aggregate has been found useful as structural concrete with a density of about 1850 kg/m 3, which satisfies the strength requirement of structural lightweight concrete.

Mechanical and bond properties of coconut shell concrete

TL;DR: In this paper, the properties of concrete using coconut shell as coarse aggregate were investigated in an experimental study and the results showed that the experimental bond strength of coconut shell concrete is much higher than the bond strength as estimated by BS 8110 and IS 456:2000 for the mix selected.

Fresh and hardened properties of self-compacting concrete produced with manufactured sand

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of paste volume and w/p ratio (water to powder ratio) on the properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC) using manufactured sand (Msand) produced by crushing rock deposits is investigated.

Ductility Behaviour of Reinforced Palm Kernel Shell Concrete Beams

TL;DR: In this paper, the structural behavior of palm kernel shell concrete and its comparison with normal weight concrete (NWC) was presented and the results were compared with NWC beams which were also designed as grade 30 and under-reinforced similar to that of the PKSC beams.
