Shear performance of concrete slab with the addition of oil palm shell as lightweight concrete aggregate

This thesis deals with the use of waste materials, oil palm shell (OPS) as a replacement for coarse aggregate in the concrete. The objectives of this thesis are to determine the potential of OPS as a coarse aggregate replacement in lightweight concrete and to study the structural behaviour of slab w...

The potential of palm oil byproduct, OPS to be used as a replacement of coarse aggregates in the concrete production can be guaranteed. As the cost of raw materials in the concrete industry is getting higher therefore manipulating the waste material is the best way to lessen the cost of concrete.

This thesis describes the tests which are to be applied on concrete which are compression test and combined bending and shear test.

The compressive strength of cube specimens was carried out at 7 and 28 days. The results show that the increase in percentage replacement of OPS decreased the compressive strength. Concrete slab specimens were tested at 28 days to observe the failure under the shear load. The results showed that increasing the content of OPS into the concrete slab gives no significant effect to the shear failure load improvement. 2015 Undergraduates Project Papers NonPeerReviewed application/pdf en http://umpir.ump.edu.my/id/eprint/12245/1/FKASA%20-%20WAN%20NUR%20HAFIEZA%20WAN%20MAT%20%28CD9289%29.pdf application/pdf en http://umpir.ump.edu.my/id/eprint/12245/2/FKASA%20-%20WAN%20NUR%20HAFIEZA%20WAN%20MAT%20-%20CHAP.1%20%28CD9289%29.pdf application/pdf en http://umpir.ump.edu.my/id/eprint/12245/3/FKASA%20-%20WAN%20NUR%20HAFIEZA%20WAN%20MAT%20-%20CHAP.3%20%28CD9289%29.pdf Wan Nur Hafieza, Wan Mat (2015) Shear performance of concrete slab with the addition of oil palm shell as lightweight concrete aggregate.
