Pervious concrete or non-fine concrete is a simple form of lightweight concrete made by eliminating the use of fine aggregates. As a result of not using fine aggregate in pervious concrete, then created a cavity filled with air and water can be passed. This cavity resulted in reduced density of the concrete as well as the reduced amount of area that needs to be covered by cement paste, thereby reducing the compressive strength. To increase the compressive strength of pervious concrete, in this study will utilize waste material. The waste material is the cocnut shell ash and coconut shell to strengthen the coarse aggregate bonds, so it is expected to increase the compressive strength along with the increase in permeability. Thus, in this study will replace part of the coarse aggregate with coconut shell with percentage 0%, 2,5%, 5%, 7,5%, 10% and partially replace cement with coconut shell ash with percentage 0%, 2,5%, 5%, 7,5%

Abstract: Aggregates provide volume at low cost, comprising 66% to 78% of the concrete. With increasing concern over the excessive exploitation of natural and quality aggregates, the aggregate produced from industrial wastes and agricultural wastes is the viable new source for building material. This study was carried out to determine the possibilities of using coconut shells as aggregate in concrete. Utilizing coconut shells as aggregate in concrete production not only solves the problem of disposing of this solid waste but also helps conserve natural resources. In this paper, the physical properties of crushed coconut shell aggregate were presented. The fresh concrete properties such as the density and slump and 28 days compressive strength of lightweight concrete made with coconut shell as coarse aggregate were also presented. The findings indicate that water absorption of the coconut shell aggregate was high about 24% but crushing value and impact value were comparable to that of other lightweight aggregates. The average fresh concrete density and 28days cube compressive strength of the concrete using coconut shell aggregate 1975kg/m3 and 19.1 N/mm2 respectively. It is concluded that crushed coconut shell is suitable when it is used as a substitute for conventional aggregates in lightweight concrete production.

Now days the cost of construction is increasing day by day due to increase in the prices of the building materials. The main ingredients of the concrete are coarse aggregate, fine aggregate and cement. Every construction company mainly depends on these ingredients for the production of concrete. In the present scenario most of the research work is done on how to reduce the cost of construction by increasing the strength of the concrete. Depending up on the properties many of the waste materials are used in the concrete as the partial replacement of aggregates. Mostly fly ash ,rice husk ash and blast furnace slag are found to be suitable for replacing the fine aggregate partially in concrete. Agriculture is the major occupation of the people in India and coconut production is one of the major agriculture production in India. The shell of the coconut is an agricultural waste and requires large amount of area for its dumping after its usage. It causes environment pollution if it is not dumped properly and creates major problem. If this coconut shell is used as replacement for coarse aggregate in concrete it gives solution to the major environmental pollution. Experiments have done on the effect of partial replacement of coarse aggregate with coconut shell for different percentages and investigated the properties of this composite concrete In this study, for M20 and M25 grades concrete four different concrete mixes for each grade with various combinations of coconut shell of about 0%, 10%, 20% and 30% were prepared. For each concrete mix three sample specimens were casted. The main focus behind this study is to utilize the agricultural waste like coconut shells which are of low cost when compared to the coarse aggregates and thus giving rise to the topic of how to construct the structures within low cost. In this study a short term analysis, at 28 days, the nature of coconut shell aggregate concrete is studied by conducting some tests like compressive strength, workability tests and comparison of these results are made with the normal concrete. In order to maintain serviceability, durability and strength of the members all the necessary precautions are taken. Thus by adopting this concept it will be very much helpful for the civil engineers and especially the society to fulfill their basic needs like low cost housing.

<p class="Abstract">The development of technology construction has reached a period of caring for the environment. Many things been developed to support environmentally friendly construction. Itcan be started from the use of a mixture of natural ingredients into a mixture of construction materials. Concrete is a construction material that is often used in Indonesia, given its ease, price, and durabilityAlong with the development of the concrete periods has experienced many advances, one of which is in the drafting of a combined mix of making concrete, and to supporting environmentally friendly concrete, a mixture of natural materials are used as one of the making material of concrete.South Sumatra is one of the islands in Sumatra, which has an abundant plantation of rubber. The large number of rubber plantations makes rubber waste more and more, one of which is rubber seeds. Therefore it is necessary to treat rubber seed waste in order to reduce the amount of rubber seed waste and can be used to improve the economy of the surrounding community.  The rubber itself has many advantages in the industrial field. Utilization of rubber has been widely used, but no one has used rubber seeds as an aggregate substitution material in making a concrete without other chemicals. Therefore this research will discuss the rubber seed mixture as a substitute for coarse aggregate. The material used to make concrete is portland type I cement, coarse and fine aggregate from the Tanjung Raja area, and the rubber seeds used are from the Sembawa area. Coarse aggregate substitution using a mixture of rubber seeds  5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% were tested during the age of concrete of 7 days, 14 days, and 28 days.. The compressive strength of rubber seed substitution with a percentage of 5% shows the most significant compressive strength value of 19.33 Mpa. From the test results of this study it can be concluded that the greater the use of rubber seeds, the lower the compressive strength.</p>

This work aims to verify the feasibility of utilizing coconut milk as the alkali activator solution in geopolymer production and the impact on mortar properties; geopolymer mortar is  still more expensive than ordinary Portland cement mortar simply because the cost of alkali solution. Coconut milk is extensively available in Malaysia and very rich in potassium and sodium. In this research, the coconut milk was used as alkali solution (100%) at first, and then replaced by NaOH, Na2SiO3 and in the last stage mixed with NaOH and Na2SiO3 at 50%. Normal solution component of Na2SiO3 and NaOH with 8 M, and used as control samples. Binder to fine aggregate (B:A) and solution to binder (S:B) ratios were fixed at 1.5 and 0.30 respectively. Multi blend binder based geopolymer mortar are used in this study. The samples were cured with different conditions, cured at room temperature and oven temperature of 60 and 90°C. Compressive strength tests were carried out to determine the properties of hardened mortar. The samples prepared with coconut milk showed low compressive strength as compared to control samples, The results demonstrated that using coconut milk as alternative to alkali solution in geopolymer industry is not a viable option.

The properties of concrete containing coarse recycled aggregates were investigated. Laboratory trials were conducted to investigate the possibility of using recycled aggregates from the demolition wastes available locally as the replacement of natural coarse aggregates in concrete. A series of tests were carried out to determine the density, compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity of concrete with and without recycled aggregates. The water cement ratio was kept constant for all the mixes. The coarse aggregate in concrete was replaced with 0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80% and 100% recycled coarse aggregates. The test results indicated that the replacement of natural coarse aggregates by recycled aggregates up to 40% had little effect on the compressive strength, but higher levels of replacement reduced the compressive strength. A replacement level of 100% causes a reduction of 28% in compressive strength, 36% in split tensile strength and 50% in flexural strength. For strength characteristics, the results showed a gradual decrease in compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength and modulus of elasticity as the percentage of recycled aggregate used in the specimens increased. 100% replacement of natural coarse aggregate by recycled aggregate resulted in 43% savings in the cost of coarse aggregates and 9% savings in the cost of concrete.
