The conventional concrete displays an average loss of compressive strength at 27.68%. The 3% RHA
substitute displays an average loss of compressive strength at 26.66%. The 3% SPB substitute displays an
average loss of compressive strength at 29.42%. The 3% RHA substitute displays an average loss of
compressive strength at 27.46%.
