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.
