Concrete is a material component in coastal area construction. With the increasing demand for concrete for construction purposes, there have been various innovations in concrete mixtures to improve the quality of the concrete, including the compressive strength value of concrete. In the concrete mixture, the researchers also add additive to the concrete mixture, one alternative is natural zeolite which is widely found in the earth. Research by testing concrete samples with variations of the zeolite mixture 0%, 15%, and 25% uses cement type V. The test results are then compared with the results of other studies using different types of cement. Comparative studies of zeolite concrete test with different types of cement show that the optimum proportion of zeolite is around 10% to 20% of the weight of cement to get the best compressive strength value.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
