Performance of concrete by using pulverized fuel ash (PFA) as a cement replacement material

Through public concerns and research efforts, the coal combustion by-product materials have potential to be utilized as construction material to replace conventional ordinary Portland cement (OPC). Recycling the coal combustion byproduct materials is the act of processing the waste material to cr...
