A study on sand brick using wood dust as sand replacement

Recently, construction is one of the developing industry, thus the demand for the natural resources in order to produce the mixtures and material is getting high. Due to the limitation of sources and difficulties in production it is lead to the shortage and increasing of price of materials for const...

The findings also show that the samples with 2.5% of wood dust are higher in compressive strength and lowest water absorption among the other samples. 2019-01 Undergraduates Project Papers NonPeerReviewed pdf en http://umpir.ump.edu.my/id/eprint/28009/1/A%20study%20on%20sand%20brick%20using%20wood%20dust%20as%20sand.pdf Nurul Nadia, Abdul Karim (2019) A study on sand brick using wood dust as sand replacement.
