Abstract

This experimental study is aimed to create a concrete mixture consisting of Lime and Coconut Fibre which replaces the cement. It is also used to analyze the effect of Lime and Coconut Fibre concrete in terms of workability, adhesion of aggregates and etc. After preparing the concrete block, the difference in weight between the original concrete and Lime and Coconut Fibre concrete block is also tested. The Lime and Coconut Fibre is mixed in different proportions such as 1%, 2%, 3% and 5%,10%,15% respectively in the concrete by replacement of cement. And then various tests are conducted for fresh concrete as well as hardened concrete. The results might indicate that both the density and the compressive strength may decrease with respect to the percentage of Lime and Coconut Fibre mixed in the concrete.
