Experimental Investigation on Hempcrete
The International Conference on scientific innovations in Science, Technology, and Management, 2023Concrete is an important construction material consisting of cement, sand and aggregate such as gravel or crushed rock, mixed with water. The most commonly used cement is Portland cement. The cement and water form a paste or gel which coast the sand and aggregate. When the cement has chemically reacted with the water, it hardens and binds the whole mix
