Abstract

The production of agricultural, industrial, and demolition trash increases along with global population growth and industrial expansion. They endanger the environment when they are not properly recycled, repurposed, or disposed of. Cocopeat is one such agricultural waste. The use of cocopeat in binder cement is urged to support sustainable construction methods. Because it is seen as trash and discarded in landfills. Cocopeat is an environmentally friendly by-product which can be got during the coconut fibre extraction process. The current study investigates the strength properties of masonry built with binding mortar that incorporates cocopeat as opposed to traditional cement-sand mortar. The mortar prepared with four different integrations of cocopeat as sand replacement of 0, 4, 6 and 8% by weight was used for masonry. Fresh properties of cocopeat binding mortar and their effect on the mechanical characteristics of masonry were investigated. The test results revealed that the mechanical characteristics of masonry were enhanced with increased cocopeat content in the mortar.

椰浆混合粘结砂浆烧制粘土砖砌体的抗压粘结性能

随着全球人口增长和工业扩张，农业、工业和拆迁垃圾的生产也在增加。如果它们没有得到适当的回收、再利用或处置，就会危及环境。泥炭就是这样一种农业废弃物。呼吁在粘结水泥中使用椰子泥炭，以支持可持续的施工方法。因为它被视为垃圾，被丢弃在垃圾填埋场。椰子泥炭是一种环保的副产品，可以在椰子纤维提取过程中获得。目前的研究调查了与传统水泥砂浆相比，使用含有椰子草炭的粘结砂浆建造的砌体的强度特性。使用由四种不同的椰子泥炭整合物制备的砂浆作为0、4、6和8重量%的砂替代物用于砌筑。研究了椰浆粘结砂浆的新鲜性能及其对砌体力学性能的影响。试验结果表明，随着砂浆中泥炭含量的增加，砌体的力学性能得到改善。

期刊介绍： The Electronic Journal of Structural Engineering (EJSE) is an international forum for the dissemination and discussion of leading edge research and practical applications in Structural Engineering. It comprises peer-reviewed technical papers, discussions and comments, and also news about conferences, workshops etc. in Structural Engineering. Original papers are invited from individuals involved in the field of structural engineering and construction. The areas of special interests include the following, but are not limited to: Analytical and design methods Bridges and High-rise Buildings Case studies and failure investigation Innovations in design and new technology New Construction Materials Performance of Structures Prefabrication Technology Repairs, Strengthening, and Maintenance Stability and Scaffolding Engineering Soil-structure interaction Standards and Codes of Practice Structural and solid mechanics Structural Safety and Reliability Testing Technologies Vibration, impact and structural dynamics Wind and earthquake engineering. EJSE is seeking original papers (research or state-of the art reviews) of the highest quality for consideration for publication. The papers will be published within 3 to 6 months. The papers are expected to make a significant contribution to the research and development activities of the academic and professional engineering community.
