The mechanical properties of oil palm shell (OPS) lightweight aggregate concrete containing palm oil clinker as a partial sand replacement

Oil palm shell (OPS) and palm oil clinker (POC) is a waste from palm industries which is excess from a process where electricity was generated in palm oil factories. The use of this POC material as partial sand replacement material in concrete will help lower the pollution to the environment. This t...
