Concrete is a material that have the strength to compression, but it is weak against tensile strength. The weakness of the tensile strength of concrete can be minimized by adding pandanus tectorius fiber. This study was aimed to determine the effect of adding pandanus tectorius fiber to split- tensile strength of concrete and percentage of the fiber in concrete that shows the highest split- tensile strength. The specimens used in this study is cylindrical with dimensions of 30 cm in height and 15 cm in diameter (SNI 03-4810-1998). Total of specimens is 32 that consist of 8 normal concretes and 24 variation concretes. An addition of pandanus tectorius fiber with the variation of 0,25%, 0,5%, and 0,75% was based on volume of the specimen. The mix design of concrete used water-cement ratio of 0.5 and slump of 60-100 mm. The splittensile strength of concrete was tested at 7 days and 14 days of dryng after immersing for 27 days. The result of split-tensile strength test of concrete with a variation of pandanus tectorius fiber showed a decreasing. The decreasing of split-tensile strength of concrete at 41 days was smaller than at 34 days to normal concrete. The highest decreasing percentage of split-tensile strength of variation concrete to normal concrete was respectively 9,249% (variation 0,25 tested at 41 days) and 14,518% (variation 0,75% tested at 34 days) .

According to the Badan Pusat Statistik data in 2018, the total area of oil palm plantations in Indonesia currently reaches around 12.3 million hectares. Solid waste is the most waste, which is around 35-40% of the total Fresh Fruit Bunches (FFB) which is processed in the form of empty fruit bunches, fiber, fruit shells, and burnt ash. PT. Hasnur Citra Terpadu in Rantau, Tapin Regency, South Kalimantan is one of the Palm Oil Mill which in the combustion process of a boiler engine using oil palm shells and fibers is burned simultaneously. The result of the combustion process produces waste in the form of boiler crust ash which is fine textured (fly ash) and coarse textured (bottom ash). This study uses fly ash as a cement substitution for concrete mixtures. The making of mortar specimens was varied with fly ash with a percentage of 0%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25% which will be tested for compressive strength at the age of 3 days, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, and 28 days. Then the making of concrete specimens is planned with a quality of 25 MPa and the concrete compressive strength is tested at the age of 3 days, 7 days, 14 days, 28 days and 56 days and the split tensile strength test of the concrete at 28 days. Based on the results of the mortar compressive strength analysis, the optimum mixture of fly ash is 10% which is used for making concrete. The average compressive strength of normal concrete at 28 days is 26.33 MPa and the compressive strength of concrete with 10% fly ash (optimum concrete) is 26.14 MPa exceeding the design compressive strength of 25 MPa. Based on the results of the split tensile strength test of concrete at the age of 28 days, it was obtained 3,914 MPa for normal concrete and 3,466 MPa for optimum concrete.

Materials are the most important component of building construction. The demands of construction material are increasing day by day significantly. This demand is increasing the material prices and scarcity of material in construction industry. To achieve economical and eco-friendly criteria naturally occurring material is selected. Clay is a natural material and it can be available easily. This paper interprets the experimental investigation on strength of concrete using clay as a partial replacement to binder content (cement) in concrete. The replacement percentages are grouped as 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% of clay and 5% of hydrated lime with cement in each series in M25 grade of concrete. To achieve the pozzolanic property of clay hydrated lime was added. Different tests are performed to determine the optimum percentage of clay as a replacement for binder content (cement) in concrete. The Compressive strength test, split tensile strength test and flexural strength test were performed on the specimens. Total 90 cubes of size 150 mm were prepared for compressive strength test, 30 cylinders of 150 mm diameter and 300 mm height were prepared for split tensile strength test and 30 beams of size 150 mm x 150 mm x 1000 mm were prepared to carry out the flexural strength test. The results are compared to find the ideal proportion of clay as a replacement for cement. It is found that 10% replacement with 5% hydrated lime gives satisfactory results.


In this study effect of water-cement ratio (W/C) on the characteristic properties of multiwalled carbon nano tube reinforced concrete is analyzed. Five concrete mixtures of different water-cement ratio (W/C) with and without carbon nano tubes (CNTs) were prepared. W/C of 0.40, 0.45, 0.48, 0.50 and 0.55 were used while quantity of carbon nano tube (CNT) was fixed at 1% by weight of cement (wbc). Ratio of cement, sand and aggregates was also fixed at 1: 1.76:2.66 in all mixes. For maintaining workability 0.5% polycarboxlate based superplasticizer wbc was added in all mixes.. The workability of carbon nanotube reinforced concrete (CNTC) reduced by 60% and W/C=0.50 was found ideal for slump as well as strength. At this W/C compressive strength for CNTC increased by 7.20%, split tensile strength increased by 25.75% and flexural strength increased by 3.87%.

This paper describes the experimental investigation to develop the concrete mix design Nomograph for concrete containing PET as fine aggregate. The physical and mechanical properties were determined by using mix proportion containing 25%, 50% and 75% of PET with water cement ratio (w/c) 0.45, 0.55 and 0.65. The data obtained showed that the inclusion of PET aggregate reduce the strength performances of concrete. All the data obtained were combined into one single graph to develop a preliminary mix design nomograph for PET concrete. The nomograph consist of ; relationship between compressive strength and water cement ratio; relationship between splitting tensile strength water cement ratio; relationship between splitting tensile strength and PET percentage and relationship between compressive strength and PET percentage. The mix design nomograph can be used to assists in selecting the proper mix proportion parameters based on the criteria required.

In this present work a response surface optimization was done to study the effect of the variables curing days, Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotube (MWCNT) and plasticizer on the strength of concrete. The variables were varied in three levels and a total of 15 cylindrical specimens were fabricated based on the experimental design. For measuring the effect of the variables, split tensile strength test was carried out on the specimens. For proper mixing of the MWCNT, sonication is carried out with plasticizer and then this mixture is added with water and the specimens are fabricated. Only the terms with p < 0.05 are chosen as significant. The results shows that an increase in MWCNT %, increased the split tensile strength of the concrete.

Abstract The use of the mountain seal used as a building block for concrete should be considered, based on current usage apart from being a light construction material for housing, mountain materials from these two places are used as the main aggregate material for building construction, water structures (dams), roads. and bridges located in the surrounding Malang-Kota Batu area To determine the size of the aggregate, the coarse aggregate is sieved using a vibrating sieve, while the fine aggregate is sieved by a hydraulic sieve. In the screening process, about 70% of the filtered must pass so that high efficiency and capacity can be achieved. The compressive strength test results obtained the average compressive strength value at 28 days of concrete for concrete with fine aggregate sand zone III and coarse aggregate (gravel) in the Batu City area is equivalent to 35.65 MPa. The results of the split tensile strength test showed that the average split strength value at the age of 28 days for concrete with fine aggregate sand zone III and coarse aggregate (gravel) in the Kota Batu area is equivalent to 2.51 MPa. The compressive strength value for normal concrete is 35.65 MPa, it should produce split tensile strength = 4.179 MPa according to the provisions of SNI T-15-1991-03 Article 3.2.5 (fr = 0.70√fc '). Even though the split tensile strength value obtained in the laboratory is only 2.51 MPa, this means that the quality of materials (sand and broken stone) from Batu City is not suitable for use as building materials. Because the number 2.51 MPa is relatively much smaller than the value of 4.179 MPa, it is only one of the factors outlined in the SNI T-15-1991-03 article 3.2.5. Keywords: Mountain Material, Concrete, Concrete Compressive Strength Test, Concrete Tensile Strength Test

Cement mortar or slurry is an essential material for production of Slurry Infiltrated Fibrous Concrete (SIFCON) structural components. However, there have been limited technical data available for deciding a suitable mix proportions and water cement ratio. For achieving a good quality of mortar mix or slurry with specific strength requirement and satisfactory level of workability for proper infiltration ability of cement slurry fibrebed. The preliminary study was carried out to select suitable mix and W/C from various mixes (1:1, 1:1.5 &1:2) and W/C (0.4, 0.45 & 0.5)on fresh and hardened properties of cement mortar. The optimum mix proportion and water cement ratio were obtained on workability (flow table test) and compressive strength of cement mortar are found to be as 1:1 and 0.40 respectively for fabrication of SIFCON. The main focus of this investigation on the behaviour of SIFCON contains various volume fraction of fibre content with an optimum mix(1:1) and W/C (0.4) under static loading. Hooked end steel fiber length of 30mm and tensile strength of 1050MPais used throughout the entire investigations. Cubes of 100 x 100 x 100mm for compressive strength and cylinders of 100mm diameter and 200mm height for split tensile strength were cast and tested at 3, 7 and 28 days. For flexural strength, three SIFCON beams of length 1200mm and cross section of 100mmx 200mm were cast and tested at 28 days under three point bending. The parameters like fracture energy, load deflection response, split tensile strength and compressive strength were found and compared the results with conventional mix. The test results observed that the strength performances were greatly improved due to addition of fibre by volume fraction in SIFCON matrix. Also developed the regression model from the experimental results to estimate the compressive and split tensile strength and compared the predicted values with the experimental values.
