Waste metal for improving concrete performance and utilisation as an alternative of reinforcement bar (2015)
Journal Article
Qureshi, T., & Ahmed, M. (2015). Waste metal for improving concrete performance and utilisation as an alternative of reinforcement bar. Other Education, 5(2), 97-103

Waste material disposal is considered as a difficult issue to adopt in current world. Waste metal, which has been recognised as a major problem in the environment and resource deficiency, could have important implications in the concrete construction...
