What is Palm Kernel Ash in Paving Block Production about?
This document summarizes a research study on using palm kernel shell ash (PKSA) as a partial replacement for cement in producing paving blocks. The study tested replacing cement at levels of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25% PKSA to determine the optimum replacement without reducing strength. Results showed that replacing 10% of cement with PKSA yielded a 6-9% increase in compressive strength and 5-13% increase in split tensile strength over curing periods. Flexural strength also increased by 4% with 7-day cur
