Abstract
Abstract The roof of a dwelling is the most significant and expensive. Low-cost heavy roofing construction frequently resulted in higher costs. The potential usage for coir, an eco-friendly building material, is as a raw material for corrugated roofing sheets and tiles. This study deals with the effects of using Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) as a partial replacement in cement roof tile production. The work is based on an experimental study of roofing tiles produced with Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) and 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50% (OPC) replaced by GGBS (Ground Granulated Blast furnace slag). The optimum combination of fibre of 0.8% and replacement of GGBS of 40% in tiles was found optimum.
