Structural behavior of reinforced concrete slab panels with treated coconut shell aggregate and GGBFS under different loading conditions

Key Points

• Reinforced concrete slab panels showed improved performance under different loading conditions, leading to higher sustainability.
• Panels using treated coconut shell aggregate and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) performed effectively compared to traditional aggregates.
• Experimental analysis focused on structural behavior under diverse loading scenarios to evaluate the impact of alternative aggregates.
• Findings suggest the use of coconut shell aggregate along with GGBFS may offer an eco-friendly solution for construction materials.
