    Abstract: A laboratory testing programme was carried out to investigate the influence of Locust Bean Waste Ash (LBWA) on cation exchange and plasticity characteristics of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) modified lateritic soil. Preliminary tests were carried out on the natural soil to determine its properties. Other tests were carried out on soil-cement mixtu... Show More

    Abstract: In recent years, appeared very high performance concretes which are the result of a more and more scientific rationalization. The use of superplasticizers, and more recently of ultrafine particles such as silica fume, has significantly minimized the amount of mixing water in concrete while improving workability. Owing to this water reduction (and t... Show More
