Abstract

The distinct properties of industrial by-products derived from agricultural wastes make it viable as substitute material in construction material applications. The present study investigates the workability and the compressive strength performance of lightweight foamed concrete using palm boiler ash produced from palm oil boilers as partial sand replacement material. The palm boiler ash with different percentage mass replacement; 4%, 8% and 12% were used to replace the sand in the foamed concrete. The inclusion of palm boiler ash as sand replacement in the foamed concrete matrix has been found to increase the compressive strength of the concrete blends. The integration of palm boiler ash also aids in the formation of pores, resulting in a lightweight product with higher compressive strength.
