Abstract

Aerated concrete blocks are made  according to the design proportions in this project. Cement,  fine particles, a foaming agent, and water are the  ingredients of foam concrete. Sand prices are significantly  rising these days. We may lower the cost of sand by  replacing it with a replacement material. In the current  investigation, sand is partially substituted by varying  weights and quantities of blast furnace slag, fly ash, and  glass powder. To gain a better understanding of the  utilization of blast furnace slag, Fly Ash, and glass powder  in various literatures, their impact on Compressive Strength  foam concrete is explored.
