The foamed concrete with FRCA attained favourable strength at the optimum replacement of 5, 10 and 15% for density 1400, 1600 and 1800 kg/m3 respectively. Concrete mix with 15% FRCA of 1800 kg/m3 exhibited superior strength than other series.

The results of the statistical analysis confirmed that the density and different replacement level of WPSA and FRCA have influenced in the strength of foamed concrete. 2013-07 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/39626/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/39626/2/39626.pdf text en public masters Universiti Teknologi MARA Faculty of Civil Engineering Mohd Ridzuan, Ahmad Ruslan (Assoc.

In view of the escalating environmental issues with consideration to the rapid depletion of natural resources, the use of waste materials from different industries are highly desirable in the manufacture of foamed concrete.
