Compressive Strength of Oil Palm Shell Lightweight Aggregate Concrete Containing Clinker as Sand Replacement

Annually, huge quantity of solid wastes namely oil palm shell and clinker from Malaysian palm oil mills were disposed as waste at dumping site. Continuous dumping of waste which has been increases over the years causes more land to be used for waste disposal and also cause pollution to the environ...
