Abstract
nThe aim of this study is to explore the incorporation of coconut fiber into M30 grade concrete and assess its impact on the strength characteristics. A literature review of different fibers is conducted and highlighting the working parameters. This research focuses to explore the efficacy of employing coconut fibers as micro reinforcement in concrete. The investigated properties encompass the compressive strength of the coconut fibers reinforced concrete (CFRC) at different percentages of fiber. The experiment involved high-strength concrete mixed with varying proportions (0%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%) of coir fiber. The coconut Fibers were obtained from the raw material by hand and cut to a length of 50mm, cement of OPC 53 grade and the maximum 20mm size of aggregate were used in this investigation. Concrete cubes of size 150mm*150mm*150mm have been casted to take the compressive strength and The data indicates that the compressive strength of concrete rises with longer curing periods but declines with higher quantities of coconut fiber. The cured concrete was tested for compressive strength after 7, 14, and 28 days. This research is conducted to raise awareness within the field of Civil Engineering regarding the dual nature of coconut fiber as both a beneficial and potentially hazardous construction material.
