PAPA, JOSE RAFAEL A. and VICEDO, IRVIN CHRISTIAN S. Production of Concrete Hollow Block using Shredded Plastic Bottles as Supplementary Agreggates. Research Study (General Science Curriculum). Science High School. College of Education. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. May 2017. Adviser: Engr. Rico C. Asuncion.
The study was conducted from October 2016 to March 2017 at Brgy. Poblacion IV, Indang, Cavite to produce concrete hollow blocks with shredded plastics bottles used as supplementary aggregates in different proportions. Specifically, it aimed to determine: l . the strength produced by concrete hollow blocks after 7, 14, and 28 days curing period;
2. the physical characteristics of the produced concrete hollow blocks in term of weight and texture; and 3. the estimated cost of producing concrete hollow blocks using shredded plastic bottles as supplementary aggregates.
There were four treatments with different proportions using a class B mixture. The treatments were 100% sand — 0% shredded plastic bottles, 80% sand — 20% shredded plastic bottles, 60% sand — 40% shredded plastic bottles, and 40% sand — 60% shredded plastic bottles.
Compression test showed that the control treatment wherein no shredded plastic bottles added have the highest compressive strength after 7, 14, and 28 days of curing. The strength of produced concrete hollow blocks decreases as the amount of shredded plastic bottles increases.
The control treatment was the least expensive as compared to CHB with plastic with a cost ofPhp 70.68
