Abstract | Sustainability is a wide accepted concept in modern construction scenario. Even though the construction industry is revolutionizing in a significant manner in terms of both equipment and materials used, the cost of construction has skyrocketed along with the deteriorative impact on environment. This resulted in the adoption of a more balanced approach with the environment as its nerve centre to create a better world to live in. This has led to the adoption of a natural fiber like Coconut for the strength enhancement in concrete. Concrete needs to be reinforced in order to improve its engineering qualities. Coconut fibers were employed for this study since they are widely accessible and come in big numbers. The study includes a comparison of the qualities of regular concrete and concrete reinforced with coconut fiber based on laboratory experimentation. Concrete with different fiber contents was evaluated with conventional concrete or prestressed concrete and different strengths parameters such as bending, compression and tensile strength of coconut fiber of length 25, 50, and 75 mm were added with proportions (0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2%) of total weight of the volume of concrete coconut fibre is carried out. The various strength aspects analysed are the flexural, compressive and tensile strength of the coconut fibre reinforced concrete. |
