Strength Characteristics of Concrete Partially Replaced with Glass Powder and Palm Kernel Shells

In view of the ever depletion sources construction materials, there is a need to explore feasibility using palm kernel shells and glass as replacements for natural crushed aggregates in Portland cement concrete. Concrete specimens produced with 25% partial replacement coarse aggregate varying percentages recycled powder pozzolana were tested their workability, compressive strength, tensile strength. Six different concrete prepared contents 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 1:2:4 mix strength split Palm respectively found be good production. With regard workability concrete, it was that had similar characteristics conventional mixes. Partially replaced showed variation about 15% from It recommended shell should not exceed 15%.
