• <b>Structural Lightweight Foam Concrete using Fly Ash and Marble Powder</b>
• Investigated the use of fly ash and marble powder as partial replacements for cement in lightweight foam concrete.
• Designed and prepared foam concrete mixes with varying substitution ratios and analyzed their workability, strength, and durability.
• Conducted compressive, flexural, and splitting tensile strength tests on cubes, cylinders, and beams as per IS 456:2000 standards.
• Identified the optimal mix (50% cement, 25% fly ash, 25% marble powder) achieving superior strength and structural viability.
• Evaluated cost-effectiveness, demonstrating an 11.63% reduction in material cost compared to conventional concrete.
• Gained experience in eco-friendly construction material development and adherence to Indian standards for concrete testing.<b></b>
