This paper deliberates in the performance of foamed concrete containing cement replacement material namely Microwave Incinerated Rice Hush Ash (MIRHA). Mixes incorporating 0%, 5%, 10% and 15% MIRHA were prepared. The optimal mix design based on compressive strength was established. Taguchi method wi...
