Properties of Aerated Concrete Containing Various Amount of Palm Oil Fuel Ash, Water Content and Binder Sand Ratio

Palm oil fuel ash (POFA) which disposed as environmentally polluting waste in continuously increasing amount by Malaysian palm oil mills has lead towards the effort of studying the possibility of recycling this material. This paper presents results on the behaviour of this agro cement based aerated...
