Abstract

The objective of the research project was to test the resistance of concrete f\'c= 210 kg/cm2 with coconut shell replacing 0.50%, 1.00% and 1.50% of coarse aggregate, whose quantitative - experimental method consists of making graphs and tables allowing To carry out data collection as a tool, the security protocols given by the Concrete Laboratory of the Universidad Privada del Norte Headquarters – Cajamarca were used, for the analysis and data procedure a mixture design was developed. The results are based on the ASTM C33 and ASTM C31 standards, Standard E060 - Reinforced Concrete and the Peruvian Technical Standard NTP 339.034 - 2015, which indicates in its article the number of specimens to be made, said resolution was made 16 specimens per standard concrete, coconut shell 0.50%, coconut shell 1.00% and coconut shell 1.50% having a total of 64 specimens and measuring their curing time of 7 days, 14 days, 21 and 28 days and verifying which is the best percentage of substitution of the coarse aggregate in the compression resistance, they can achieve a better compression performance through of compressive strength and verify that an organic material does work in particular.
