Abstract
In this study the stress-strain behaviour of coconut shell concrete incorporating ground granulated blast furnace slag and manufactured sand was obtained and it was in good fit with popovics model (Mo et al., 2015). Coconut shell concrete of grade M20 was achieved using 401kg/m3 of cement by conceal curing. The flexural behaviour of under-reinforced and over-reinforced coconut shell concrete designed by limit state method using the actual stress-strain behaviour is analogous with the experimental values. The deflection and crackwidth of coconut shell concrete is comparable with the permissible values given by IS 456:2000, ACI-318 and EC 2:1992.
