  • Abstract:
  • Paver blocks are playing a vital role in the construction field. Utilizing coir fiber waste as sustainable materials in the production of paver blocks. Coir fiber waste is derived from the husk of coconuts. They have properties that can enhance the performance and sustainability of traditional concrete paver blocks. This paper aims to develop paver blocks using coir fiber waste. Different mix proportions of fine aggregate replaced by coir fiber in 0.5%,0.6% and 0.7% by weight. The research focuses on several key aspects: The optimal mix design for coir fiber into concrete, and the environmental impact analysis of using these materials in comparison with conventional methods. Also we selected this project from niral thiruvizha to solve the problem of a coconut coir industry, which is generating nearly 50kg of coconut coir waste per day.
