| Abstract | The increasing in greenhouse gas emissions, as well as solid waste disposal from the cement manufacturing industry and the Malaysian palm oil industries respectively contributes towards the undesirable 6°C Scenario envisioned by the International Energy Agency. The utilization of Palm Oil Fuel Ash (POFA) as partial cement replacement in the production of Oil Palm Shell (OPS) Lightweight Aggregate Concrete (LWAC) would significantly reduce cement consumption and amount of disposed landfill waste. In this investigation, the effect of POFA content as partial cement replacement towards the compressive strength of OPS lightweight aggregate concrete has been conducted. A total of six OPS LWAC mixtures were prepared with varying the percentages of POFA viz. 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% to determine the best replacement of POFA as partial cement replacement. The ashes were ground to enhance their pozzalanicity. The best replacement of POFA-20 was then used to investigate the mechanical properties of OPS LWAC such as compressive strength, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity. The concretes containing POFA were placed in different types of curing regimes namely water, air, sprayed and natural weather curing before subjected to compressive strength test and flexural strength test at the age of 28, 60, 180,270 and 365 days. The compressive strength was conducted in accordance with the BS EN12390-3 whilst the flexural strength test was carried out in accordance with the BS EN 12390-5. It was found that water curing is the best method amongst others. OPS LWAC with POFA exhibits the highest results of compressive strength, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity. The production of extra C-S-H gel resulting from better pozzolanic reaction for water cured OPS LWAC with POFA has contributed to the densification of the internal structure that in turn enhances the concrete strength. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
