Compressive and Flexural Strength Behavior of Banana Tree Fiber Hybrid Concrete
The purpose of this study is to discuss the utilization of banana tree fiber as additional material to improve hardened concrete properties. The existence of banana tree waste from the agriculture business has not been optimally utilized. Using banana tree waste as a constituent of concrete is expected to improve the quality of the concrete as well as to reduce waste. The fibers used in this study are placed in the tensile part of the specimen because concrete has low resistance to tensile forces, so it is hoped that the fibers can increase the tensile capacity of the concrete. The test consisted of checking the workability level of fresh concrete, while the hardened properties test consisted of compressive and flexural strength. Banana tree fibers are varied from 0 to 0.24% of the weight of cement. The results of the fresh properties show that the workability of concrete is reduced when the amount of fiber is increased. The hardened properties result show that the increased amount of fiber is not affect the compressive strength. However, the bending test results show that the flexural strength is improved when the amount of fiber increased.
