Engineering Properties of Concrete with Laterite Aggregate as Partial Coarse Aggregate Replacement

The increasing utilization of natural aggregate for concrete production has created negative impact towards environment. Thus, investigation on searching for alternative material which has potential to replace the use of granite aggregate in concrete mix is very much in need. This paper presents the...
