Experimental Study on Concrete by Partial Replacement of Cement with Coconut Shell Ash, Incorporating Steel Fibres: A Review
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Demand for cement continues to grow, and also increase in the cost of conventional building materials; for this objective, the use of industrial waste products and agricultural byproducts are very constructive. These industrial and agricultural byproducts such as Fly Ash, Rice Husk Ash, Coconut shell ash, Silica Fume etc can be used as cementing materials because of their pozzolanic behavior, and fibers like Steel fibre, Jute fiber, Coconut fiber etc. can be used to increase the tensile strength of concrete, which otherwise require large tracts of lands for dumping, thus the concrete industry offers an ideal method to integrate and utilize a number of waste materials, which are easily available, and economically within the buying powers of an ordinary man. Presence of such materials in cement concrete not only reduces the carbon dioxide emission, but also imparts significant improvement in Compressive strength, Split tensile strength, Workability.
