Applications of Agro-waste in the Construction Industry: A Review
Agriculture waste is considered as one of the most crucial concerns which negatively affect the environment. Hence, the trend of using agro-waste in the construction industrial has become the focus of recent research studies. Implementation of agro-waste in concrete mixtures as a replacement material for various ingredients had several effects on mechanical properties, structural behaviour, durability, and sustainability. Agro-waste can replace fine and coarse aggregates and act as a filler and/or reinforcing material based on its characteristics. This paper reviewed the use of agro-wastes in different construction applications and their effects on various properties, including mechanical, acoustics, and thermal. In addition, the paper will highlight the ecological and environmental impact of the use of such agro-wastes.
