| ABSTRACT |
ARTI-GATE can help to provide best alternative material in construction industry. Rather than using granite in concrete production, ARTI-GATE IS more lighter and has lower density. Thus, it will help to reduce the amount of dead load when designing a concrete structure such as house, commercial building and also for factory. To date, there is no available aggregate in the market that utilized bubbles as its main raw material. The process of making ARTI-GATE is superfast since its only requires 1-2 days before it can readily be used. Combination of bubbles and ordinary Portland cement in ratio 1:2 as main ingredients is very unique and can be considered to be first in the world.
