Physical properties of concrete with 5.0 and 10.0 percent palm oil boiler stone (POBS) as fine aggregate replacement

It has been more than a decade since the understanding and use of waste material was developed. The behavior and promising desired characteristic led to many studies and research work to reveal the potential of this material as suitable, safe and economical building material. One of the many challen...
