About this document
Coconut Shells in Lightweight Concrete by Neil Patrick Panganiban is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses using coconut shells as a lightweight aggregate in concrete. It presents the physical properties of crushed coconut shell aggregate and the compressive strength of concrete made with coconut shell aggregate. The key findings are that coconut shell aggregate has high water absorption around 24% but crushing and impact values comparable to other lightweight aggregates. The average fresh concrete density was 1975 kg/m3 and 28-day compressive strength was 19.1 N/mm2, showing coconut shell
