Shear behaviour of reinforced palm kernel shell concrete beams
The shear behaviour of palm kernel shell concrete (PKSC) beams prepared using palm kernel shell (PKS) as lightweight aggregate (LWA) is reported here. The shear strength of grade 30 PKSC with a density of 1850 kg/m3 was found 24 higher than the corresponding normal weight concrete (NWC). Good aggreg...
