Structural Behavior of Nanocoated Oil Palm Shell as Coarse Aggregate in Lightweight Concrete
Oil palm shells (OPS) are mechanical waste that is utilized as coarse aggregates in lightweight concrete. These OPS have shape and strength like conventional aggregates yet the substantial made with these OPS invigorates a limit of 18 MPa.

Lightweight aggregate concrete produced with crushed stone sand as fine aggregate
Lightweight aggregate concrete mixtures incorporating 0, 10, 20, and 30 weight percent replacement of normal-weight aggregate with lightweight aggregate and crushed stone as fine aggregate were tested at 7, 28, 56, and 90 days for various strength and ...

Structural Lightweight Concrete Containing Recycled Lightweight Concrete Aggregate
In this paper, Structural Lightweight Concrete (SLC) containing Recycled Lightweight Aggregate (RLA) is described. Damaged lightweight concrete was used as RLA by crushing it into fine particles, and used to replace fine limestone aggregate of up to 45% by weight.

Lightweight Structural Concrete
Using of Lightweight concrete (LWC) amounts to a lower cost and a better thermal performance due to its unique properties and light density. The main disadvantage in using lightweight concrete is that its mechanical properties are relatively poor. An effective method to improve the mechanical properties of lightweight concrete is using a dosage of nano-
