Abstract:Coconut shell concrete is a lightweight concrete produced from waste coconut shells. In this paper, the bond strength between lightweight coconut shell concrete with silica fume and circular steel tube was experimentally investigated. Coconut shells were used as coarse aggregates and silica fume as the mineral admixture. Two concrete mixes with and without silica fume were tested for bond strength. The parameters of study were the D/t ratio, interface length, and the interface type (roughened steel surface and… Show more
