description The increasing demand for natural sand supply by concrete industry and rising quantity of palm oil fuel ash, an environmentally polluting solid waste disposed by Malaysian palm oil industry has led to the innovation of aerated concrete containing palm oil fuel ash as partial sand replacement material. This lightweight concrete exhibits improvement in the compressive strength with the incorporation of 30% palm oil fuel ash. However, the long term experimental result of the strength and durability performance of this modified concrete is unavailable. This paper reports the one year result on strength performance of aerated concrete containing palm oil fuel ash when subjected to different curing method and behavior of this material upon exposure to long term sulphate attack. Comparisons are made between behavior of plain aerated concrete mix as control specimen and another mix, aerated concrete with 30% palm oil fuel ash as partial sand replacement.
