Microstructure and Performance Optimization of Barley Husk Ash–Blended Mortars: A Sustainable Approach to Cement Substitution

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 4, April 2026.
Barley husk ash (BHA), an agricultural byproduct rich in pozzolanic oxides, was optimized as a sustainable cement substitute. Statistical modeling and experimental validation confirmed 22.75% BHA as the optimal replacement, enhancing mechanical and durability performance while advancing eco‐efficient construction practices.

Modification of the Performance of Fresh and Hardened Concrete Reinforced With Fibers From Oil Palm Mesocarp

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Currently, many researchers use industrial or agricultural by‐products (waste) as raw materials for the construction sector. These wastes are economical and help preserve the environment through good waste management. For this purpose, oil palm mesocarp fibers (OPMFs) are used at various volume concentrations (0%, 0.25%, 0.5%, and 1%) for the ...
