Effect of water content on the properties of OPS concrete containing palm oil fuel ash

Oil palm shell (OPS) and palm oil fuel ash (POFA) generated as by product from Malaysian palm oil mills has been disposed at landfill in increasing quantity thus creating environmental pollution. Steps taken to incorporate these waste materials in concrete production would be able to reduce the amo...
