Abstract

Improper disposal of agricultural waste is causing problems in the world today. Since it was seen that using rice husk and coconut fiber can help humans and their environment, this study investigated if coconut fiber and risk husks are potential alternative ingredients in making cement boards. With this, a quantitative experimental design was used to answer the questions this study sought. After the experiment, it was found that rice husk-coconut fiber is not feasible enough in terms of its flexural strength; however, using the rice husk-coconut fiber cement board for interior purposes is recommended. With the limitations of the study, it is also recommended for future researchers to survey rice husk-coconut fiber cement board to use variations with higher water, rice husk, coconut fiber, and cement ratio that can improve the strength and durability of the rice husk-coconut fiber cement board.
