Abstract :
This research assessed the suitability Atili seed
shell as partial replacement of conventional coarse
aggregates in no-fines concrete. The results
show that the workability of no fines concrete improves as
the percentage replacement coarse aggregate with Atili
seed shell increases. The compressive strengths of all the
samples fall within acceptable range of compressive
strength of no-fines concrete.The percentage of water absorbed by the
concrete reduced as the percentage replacement coarse
aggregate with Atili seed shell increases.
Keywords :
No-Fines Concrete; Atili Seed Shell; Workability; Flexural Strength; Compressive Strength; Water Absorption.
