Concrete is very wide topic in civil engineering field. Modification of concrete is very essential for eco-friendly environment for present scenario. Show we are using agricultural waste in concrete to modify the concrete and to reduce problems of waste disposal and land utilization for waste. The agricultural wastes which are used in this project: - i). Coconut shell ii). Rise husk ash Coconut shells are by-products of coconut oil production. Coconut shells are used in the production of activated carbon due to hardness and high carbon content. Concrete using Coconut Shell aggregates resulted in acceptable strength required for structural concrete. Coconut Shell may offer itself as a coarse aggregate as well as a potential construction material in the field of construction industries and this would solve the environmental problem of reducing the generation of solid wastes simultaneously. . The impact resistance of Coconut Shell concrete is high when compared with conventional concrete. Moisture retaining and water absorbing capacity of Coconut Shell are more compared to conventional aggregate. Cost reduction of 40% can be achieved if coconut shells are used to replace gravel in concrete. The amount of cement content may be more when Coconut Shell are used as an aggregate in the production of concrete compared to conventional aggregate concrete. Thus cement can also be replaced by rice husk ash which is an agricultural waste to make it low cost material. Rice husk ash (RHA) is a by-product from the burning of rice husk. This husk contains about 75 % organic volatile matter and the balance 25 % of the weight of this husk is converted into ash during the firing process, is known as rice husk ash (RHA). This RHA in turn contains around 85 % - 90 % amorphous silica. Thus Rise husk is replaced partially by cement and Coconut shell is replaced by aggregate in various proportions. Then the concrete specimen is compared by testing on 7th, 14th and 28th day with water cement ratio of 0.5. Compressive strength tensile strength, workability, etc. will be shown in result. According to result of RHA moulds and coconut shell moulds the ratios are formed for using RHA and coconut shell together in concrete.
