CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
Background of the Study
Concrete is a widely used construction material due to its strength and versatility. However, the
production of traditional commercial cement, a primary component of concrete, contributes significantly to
carbon emissions and environmental degradation. (Bandera & Sanchez, 2022). The production of concrete
is responsible for 4-8% of the world's CO2 emissions, cement production emits large amounts of toxic
substances into the air, which can worsen air quality and lead to respiratory diseases (Watts, 2019). Concrete
is a composite construction material consisting of a mixture of cement, aggregates (such as sand, gravel, or
crushed stone) water, and often various chemical admixtures. Cement-based materials, such as concrete,
have been used for many centuries, mostly in the construction and civil engineering fields, thus becoming
the most widely used material. (Gagg, n.d.) Concrete is an extremely important construction material. It is
used in the production of the many structures that make up the modern world including buildings, bridges,
roads and dams. The constant demand for all of these structures, increasingly from the developing world,
means that cement is the second most consumed commodity in the world after water. (Desai, 2016)
Concrete is widely used in domestic, commercial, recreational, rural, and educational construction.
We rely on concrete for safe and strong building material. In using concrete for any construction project,
there are a lot of considerations to come up with a durable and high-quality concrete. But despite its
durability, it can also be damaged by weather and time. (Bueno, 2021) Engineers are continually pushing
the limits with the help of innovative chemical admixtures and supplementary cementitious materials.
Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) are often incorporated in the concrete mix to reduce cement
contents, improve workability, increase strength and enhance durability. (Wang et al., 2021)
1
Early additional cementitious materials were made of naturally occurring, easily accessible
materials, including volcanic ash or diatomaceous earth. (Navang, 1992).
The resistance of concrete to chloride infiltration can be significantly improved by adding
supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). Fly ash, slag, silica fume, and metakaolin are the SCMs
used in concrete exposed to chlorides the most frequently. SCMs can enhance the strength-gain behaviour,
durability, and resistance to different modes of degradation of concrete. SCMs primarily react in two ways
that affect the characteristics of the concrete. The chemical and hydration reactivities of SCMs depend on
their compositions, and different SCMs exhibit different levels of each reactivity (Juenger et al., 2019).
Based on the type of reaction they undergo, supplementary cementitious materials can be classified as either
hydraulic or pozzolanic. While pozzolanic materials chemically react with calcium hydroxide Ca(OH), a
soluble reaction product in the presence of moisture, to form compounds with cementing capabilities,
hydraulic materials react directly with water to create cementitious compounds (Mehta PK, 1987).
Although many temperate and semi-tropical locations of the world today include bamboo species,
it is assumed that they originated in Central China (Hong et al., 2010). Bamboo (Blumeana) is a versatile
material that may be applied to numerous industrial sectors. Bamboo is widely found, grows quickly, and
has excellent physico-chemical characteristics, making it a practical and widely accessible material in many
nations throughout the world. Secondary study based on accessible sources points to a positive future
orientation for the economy based on the utilization of bamboo (Borowski, 2019). People frequently
regarded bamboo leaves as trash and paid them little mind. It was regrettable because bamboo leaves still
contain compounds like silicon dioxide or silica that can be used (Adetuberu, 2014). The primary
component used to create glass, ceramics, and other materials was SiO2 industries that produce refractory
materials. For the manufacturing of soluble products, silica has been a crucial raw ingredient. silicon carbide
as well as silicates (Kurniati, 2009). Currently, mineral silica is relatively expensive, making its application
using organic sources of silica has emerged as another alternative in the silicon chip industry. (Irzaman et
al 2018 ). Bamboo has been shown to have a sufficient amount of silicon oxide (Suhardiman, 2023). The
cellulose percentage of bamboo ranges from 42.4% to 53.6%, and the lignin content ranges from Ash
2
content ranges from 1.24% to 3.77%, silica ranges from 0.10% to 1.28%, and the extractive ranges from
19.8% to 26.6%.levels of 0.9% - 6.9%, and the cellulose and hemicellulose content of bamboo ranged from
73.32% -83.80% (Noverliana & Asmi, 2017). Among the widespread bamboo species in the Philippines,
in particular the bambusa blumeana (kawayang tinik) can seen in Central Luzon and other places in the
country. It regularly occurs used to create furniture, build native houses, and is also eaten as food
Nevertheless, several studies have noted its use by specific ethnic communities in Luzon, Philippines, for
the treatment of respiratory symptoms, kidney stones, and Dengue fever (Tantengco et al., 2018). The
following are chemical components of kawayang tinik: holocellulose (67.4%), pentosans (19%), lignin
(20.4%), ash (4.8%), and silica (3.4%); they are also relatively soluble in hot water (4.3%), alcohol-benzene
(3.1%), and 1% NaOH (39.5%). High silica content causes internodes to occasionally be entirely filled with
a hard, white, siliceous mass that destroys any cutting tools employed on it (Roxas, 2016).
There are four mussel species that are commonly eaten in the Philippines: Perna viridis (Asian
green mussel), modiolus philippinarum (Philippine horse mussel), Modiolus metcalfei (yellow banded
horse mussel), and mytella strigata (charru mussel) (Salinas & Rosario 2016). Among these mussel species,
perna viridis is widely cultivated (Toralde et al., 2021.) Asian green mussel (Perna viridis) shell is a marine
bivalve species belonging to the family Mytilidae (Gonzales & Laureta, 2022). The species is widely
dispersed over the Indo-Pacific, Indo-Indian, and Southeast Asian coasts (Rajagopal et al., 2006), and has
been established in the coastal regions of the western Hemisphere, including Florida in the United States,
Venezuela, Trinidad, and Jamaica (Ingrao et al., 2001). Its habitats include estuarine and marine waters
(McFarland et al., 2013), usually less than 10 meters deep (Iqbal et al., 2018). In addition to its ecological
significance, the species is a valuable source of seafood and is widely produced for commercial purposes,
particularly in Southeast Asia. This species is now regarded as a low-cost protein source with great
nutritional properties and a tasty flavor (Taib et al., 2016). Asian Green mussel (Perna Viridis) shells are a
rich source of calcium carbonate. They contain 95.7 to 98.2 wt. % calcium. The synthesized precipitated
calcium carbonate (PCC) from green mussel shells has been characterized and compared with commercial
3
calcium carbonate. The Ca content in commercial CaCO3 was higher than the Ca content in calcium
carbonate properties and Crab shell, while the C and O content in commercial CaCO3 was lower than the
C and O content in calcium carbonate properties and Crab shell (Ismail et al., 2022). Calcination is a process
of heating a substance to a high temperature in the absence of air or oxygen. In the case of Asian green
mussels (Perna viridis), calcination is used to extract calcium oxide from the shells, which can then be used
to produce calcium carbonate (Muryanto et al., 2022; Prihanto et al., 2022).
Given the issues associated with the use of commercially available cementitious materials,
particularly cement, there is a potential threat to the quality and sustainability of construction projects, as
well as the health of individuals. Builders and construction workers, in particular, are the most common
individuals exposed to the limitations of cementitious materials. Naturally, this study presents a potential
alternative in Bamboo Leaf Ash (Bambusa blumeana) and Asian Green Mussel Shell (Perna viridis) as
supplementary cementitious materials. These components are not known to have the drawbacks associated
with traditional materials. Thus, the research entitled “Bamboo Leaf Ash (Bambusa blumeana) and Asian
Green Mussel Shell (Perna viridis) as Supplementary Cementitious Material” will be conducted.

RESEARCH PROCEDURE
Collection of Materials
The researchers will gather all the necessary materials, including 3000g of bamboo leaves from a
location near one of the researchers' residences, 3000g of Asian Green Mussel Shell from Paseo Del Mar
restaurants situated on Valderoza Street, Zamboanga City, 32000g fine and 64000g coarse aggregates
sourced from sand and gravel in San Roque, Zamboanga City, and cement from Four C Enterprises in San
Roque, Zamboanga City.
Preparation of Materials
The researchers will clean and wash the mussel shells thoroughly to remove any impurities.
Subsequently, the bamboo leaves and mussel shells should be placed in an oven and dried at a temperature
of around 100°C until they achieve complete dryness.
9
Preparation of Bamboo Leaf (Bambusa blumeana) Ash
The researchers will begin by placing the dried bamboo leaves in a furnace or kiln and subjecting them to
temperatures ranging from approximately 700-800°C for a duration of 2-4 hours. Once the combustion
process is complete, allow the resulting BLA to naturally cool down to room temperature. Following
cooling, utilize a grinding mill to reduce the BLA into a fine powder. To achieve the desired particle size
distribution, the BLA will pass through a 0.075mm sieve.
Preparation of Asian Green Mussel (Perna viridis) Shell Ash
The researchers will start by placing the dried and cleaned mussel shells in a furnace or kiln,
subjecting them to temperatures around 800-900°C for a period of 2-4 hours to facilitate combustion. Once
the mussel shell ash is generated, let it naturally cool down to room temperature. After cooling, employ a
grinding mill to finely pulverize the AGMSA into a powder. To achieve the desired particle size distribution,
AGMS will pass through a 0.075mm sieve to separate and collect the appropriately sized particles.
Preparation of Concrete Mixtures
The researchers will create concrete mixtures by mixing BLA and AGMSA with ordinary
commercial cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, and water ensuring a consistent and well-mixed
composite. Then, pour the prepared concrete mixtures into molds to form specimens intended for
subsequent testing following their given concentration respectively: The table shows the amount of the
cementitious material per treatment.

Experimental Set-up
The researchers will create a concrete block for all treatments according to the standard brick
dimensions, which typically measure 0.19m in length, 0.09m in width, and 0.09m in height. By doing this,
the researchers can easily and possibly test the durability of the concrete per treatment.
Figure 1 (below): The size of the concrete
Data Gathering Procedure
In this study, the researcher will collect data through a static load test. Sand, weighing 500g, will
be gradually applied and held constant to allow for the measurement of deformations, stresses, and the
structural response to the applied force, with the goal of determining the concrete's load-bearing capacity.
Through this method, the researcher aims to ascertain the maximum weight that the concrete can withstand.
This testing method is valuable for evaluating the structural integrity, strength, and performance of a wide
range of materials and structures, including buildings, bridges, components, and materials like concrete,
11
steel, and wood. Static load testing is contrasted with dynamic load testing, where loads are applied rapidly
or cyclically to simulate real-world dynamic conditions.
Data Analysis
Data analysis will be performed on the collected data. The researcher will use the Statistical
Analysis Software-IBM Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 25. Descriptive Statistics,
One-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Tukey Post-hoc test at a 5% (0.05) level of significance and 95%
confidence interval, and Means Plot will be the statistical tools used for analysis.
Waste Disposal
It's important to properly dispose of cement to protect the environment and ensure compliance with
local laws such as Republic Act 9003 also known as the Ecological Solid Waste Act of 2000. The excess
cement will be dispose and the other disposable materials in the proper disposal bin and it will be segregated.
The commercial cement will not be thrown and it will be given to those who are in need of using it. The
washable materials will be washed and will be thrown to avoid contamination. The samples will be properly
disposed of by the researcher.
