چکیده انگلیسی
A large amount of waste coconut shell is generated in India from temples and industries of coconut product and its disposal need to be addressed. Researchers have proposed to utilize it as ingredient of concrete. This experimental investigation was aimed to quantify the effects of replacing partially the conventional coarse aggregate by coconut shell to produce concrete. The research work was divided into two parts. First part was aimed to observe the effect of such replacement on compressive strength and density of concrete. In the second part, the aim was to find out the additional quantity of cement required to compensate for reduction in strength of concrete resulted due to this replacement. It was found that with increasing proportion of coconut shells, there is decrement in compressive strength. Results revealed that with 40% replacement of conventional coarse aggregate by coconut shell, 7Â days compressive strength of concrete decreased by 62.6%; whereas decrease in 28Â days compressive strength was only 21.5%. 40% replacement makes the concrete lighter by 7.47%. Further, it was revealed that for mix design of concrete of 20Â N/mm2 characteristic strength, no additional cement is required for 5% replacement and only 3.6% additional cement was required for 10% replacement. The results confirm that although there is an increase in cost due to additional cement requirement, the advantages being many, including efficient utilization of waste coconut shell, reduction in natural source depletion etc, the use of coconut shell in concrete seems to be a feasible option. Such study will help to arrive at final decision regarding quantity of coconut shell for replacing conventional aggregates in concrete production.
