Abstract:

The main of this experimental study is to investigation mechanical properties of coconut shell concrete with quarry dust. Compressive, flexural, split tensile strengths and impact resistance were tested and compared with conventional concrete with river sand, conventional concrete with quarry dust, coconut shell concrete with river sand, coconut shell concrete with quarry dust. Coconut shell concrete with quarry dust compressive, flexural, split tensile strengths are increased by 7%, 2.15%, 5.6% and impact resistance is also increased more compared to coconut shell concrete with river sand.

Keywords: Conventional concrete with river sand(CC), Conventional concrete with quarry dust(CCQ), Coconut shell concrete (CSC), Coconut shell concrete with quarry dust (CSCQ).
