When partially replacing coarse aggregate by coconut shell,
the weight of concreteshould be decreased.When adding 10% of
silica fume by the weight of cement and 10% of coconut shell by
the weight of coarse aggregate it gives 10% weight lesser than the
nominal concrete.

CONCLUSION
From this project we have studied that the split tensile strength was
increased when the cement is partially replaced by 10% of silica fume
and coconut shell is partially replaced by 5% of coconut shell.
Also the flexural strength of concrete was increased when the
cement is partially replaced by 10% of silica fume and coconut shell
is partially replaced by 2.5% of coconut shell.
The compressive strength of concrete was decreased with
increasing the percentage replacement of coconut shell.
When adding 10% of silica fume by the weight of cement and 10%
of coconut shell by the weight of coarse aggregate it gives 10%
weight lesser than the nominal concrete.
Our suggestion those who made an alternative study on the silica
fume and coconut shell is that they can be used along with addition of
other admixtures may yield good strength.
