The aim of this research is to investigate the compressive strength of porous concrete made using Alccofine, bagasse ash, and coconut fiber. Alccofine, a widely used cementitious material in the construction industry, offers the advantage of reducing the water/binder ratio, particularly beneficial for producing high-performance and high-strength concrete. Porous concrete with flexible permeability can be advantageous for groundwater discharge. In this study, fine aggregate typically used in M80 grade concrete is eliminated to create porous concrete of M30 grade. Bagasse ash, owing to its pozzolanic properties, is beneficial when incorporated, although its usage is somewhat restricted by its water absorption capacity.

摘要

The aim of this research is to investigate the compressive strength of porous concrete made using Alccofine, bagasse ash, and coconut fiber. Alccofine, a widely used cementitious material in the construction industry, offers the advantage of reducing the water/binder ratio, particularly beneficial for producing high-performance and high-strength concrete. Porous concrete with flexible permeability can be advantageous for groundwater discharge. In this study, fine aggregate typically used in M80 grade concrete is eliminated to create porous concrete of M30 grade. Bagasse ash, owing to its pozzolanic properties, is beneficial when incorporated, although its usage is somewhat restricted by its water absorption capacity. Additionally, coconut fiber contributes to the formation of a matrix structure in porous concrete, enhancing its strength.
