Flexural Behaviour of Light Weight Reinforced Concrete made with Agro Industrial Waste

Abstract

In this present research inspection on the flexural performance of reinforced concrete members formed as Industrial waste. In the inspection, Palm Oil Shells (POS) are replacing in coarse aggregates (C.A). In this research, the lightweight concrete (LWC) is attained by substituting the coarse aggregates up to 50 percent employing Palm oil shells (POS). Replacing of C.A with POS in concrete making not individual solve the complexity of disposing of this solid misuse and also helps protect natural resources. To reduce CO 2 emissions from the cement industry, the cement is partially replaced with GGBS-ground granulated blast furnace slag and POFA - palm oil fuel ash, and adding 0.5% Glass fibers (G.F) to the volume of the concrete to increase ductility properties. Beams through varying dimensions were fictional and experienced under four-point bending and also Slabs with central load are considered. Data accessible includes deflection characteristics, Ductility Index. The investigation related to flexural actions of fiber-reinforced POS concrete be equivalent to the natural concrete and the new results compare sensibly fine with the Indian code of exercise.
