This paper evaluates the feasibility of utilising palm oil fuel ash (POFA) and fly ash (FA) as an Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) replacement in self-compacting concretes (SCC). The level of OPC replacement is up to 40% based on a 540 kg/m3 mix design. All concrete mixtures were restricted to the fo...
