Properties of Coconut Shells as Coarse Aggregate in Concrete Production: A Productive Waste Usage
Résumé
The properties of concrete using crushed coconut shells as crushed coconut shells replaced coarse aggregate at different percentage rates of 0, 50 and 100%, which was cured at 3, 7 and 28 days. The concrete tests were carried out on workability, compressive strength, split tensile strength, sieve analysis, specific gravity and water absorption of the aggregate compared to the control (standard concrete property). The result of the study is expected to promote the use of coconut shells as a substitute for conventional coarse aggregates, which tend to act as lightweight concrete as a potential building material.
