In this research, performance of limestone and oil palm shell (OPS) as the alternative aggregates in fly ash based geopolymer concrete was evaluated based on the fresh and hardened concrete test. Fly ash and oil palm shell were studied due to their abundant availability as industrial and agricultura...
