Wet coconut fiber as an additive in concrete mixture

Concrete is one of the materials that is widely used in construction all around the world. This material is used because it has several benefits such as, more durable, energy-efficient, low maintenance, affordability, fire-resistance, excellent thermal mass and also versatility.
