Influence of Elevated Temperatures on Compressive Strength of Concrete Containing Laterite Aggregate

The present investigation looks into the effect of laterite aggregate as partial coarse aggregate replacement towards performance of concrete upon exposure to elevated temperature. Two mixes namely plain concrete with 100% granite aggregate and laterite concrete with 10% laterite stone as partial co...
