Properties of concrete containing finely crushed oil palm shell as partial sand replacement

Oil palm shell is a waste which is abundantly generated and disposed at the landfill by Malaysian palm oil industry. As a result, it contributes toward pollution problem. Using OPS, as partial fine aggregate replacement in concrete making would be able to reduce the amount of this waste ending up at...
