Effect of Mixing Constituent toward Engineering Properties of POFA Cement-Based Aerated Concrete

Palm oil fuel ash (POFA) cement-based aerated concrete is a new type of lightweight concrete produced by integrating POFA, a by product of palm oil mill as a partial cement replacement in aerated concrete. This paper presents the effects of using a different character of mixing constituent such as s...
