Cocoblend Concrete: Exploring Concrete Grades with Recycled Coconut Shells for Optimal Durability

Abstract

The high cost of conventional structure accoutrements is a major factor affecting casing delivery in the world. This has needed exploration into indispensable accoutrements of construction. In this study, coconut shell & fly ash is used as light weight total in concrete. The parcels of coconut shell and fly ash as total in concrete is examined and the use of coconut shell and fly ash total in construction is tested. The design aims at analysing flexural and compressive strength characteristics of with partial relief using M20 and M25 grade concrete. The design also aims to show that Coconut shell and fly ash total is an implicit construction material and contemporaneously reduces the terrain problem of solid waste. shafts are casted, tested and their physical and mechanical parcels are determined. The main ideal is to encourage the use of these “putatively” waste products as construction material.
