Abstract

Concrete is versatile material and its production is increasing day by day. Cost of conventional concrete are very high and availability natural aggregate are decreasing. Now there is a need to find out new material which can replace concrete in gradient. In this study coconut shells is used as aggregate in concrete, M-40 concrete is casted with coconut shells aggregate and then these aggregate is tested for its compressive strength and workability.
