The effect on concrete behaviour using 20 % and 30 % of latex admixture / Zainal Abiddin Hasan

The aim of this investigation is to study the effect on concrete behaviour with using 20 % and 30 % of latex admixture, such as tensile strength, compressive strength, workability and permeability as well as durability. This study is a continuation of final year project done by Nurhaidah Jamil which...
