dc.description.abstractThe utilisation of waste materials in the construction industry is an effective way to sanitise the environment and reduces the cost of construction. In this research, palm oil clinker (POC) aggregates was used to fully replace normal aggregates to produce structural lightweight concrete. This concrete was used in the construction of composite slabs with profiled steel sheet. A total of eight full scale composite slabs, six palm oil clinker concrete (POCC) slabs and two conventional concrete slabs were constructed and tested in accordance to Eurocode 4: Part 1.1 and BS 5950: Part 4: 1994. Two shear spans were used, 450 mm for short shear span and 900 mm for long shear span. The structural behaviour of the slabs was investigated and compared. The horizontal shear-bond strength between the concrete and the steel was determined according to two methods; m-k and partial shear connection methods. Test results show that the structural behaviour and the horizontal shear-bond strength of the POCC slabs are nearly similar to the conventional concrete slabs. The mechanical interlock (m) and the friction (k) between the steel and the concrete are 117.67 N/mm2 and 0.0973 N/mm2, respectively and the design horizontal shear-bond strength using m-k and PSC methods is 0.248 N/mm2 and 0.215 N/mm 2, respectively. The difference between the two methods is 13.3%. POCC is therefore suitable to be used for structural applications with a reduction in weight of 18.3% compared to conventional concrete composite slabs. � 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.en_US
