Abstract: The egg shell usually which are disposed off is used as an alternate for the cement, since, the shell is made up of calcium. In this study the results of specimens calculating the performance of egg shell powder as the partial replacement of cement in concrete. Partially, the cement is replaced with egg shell powder as 5, 10 and 15% by weight. The compressive, split tensile and flexural strength was determined at curing ages 7, 14 and 28 days. Concrete is cast and compressive test, tensile and flexural tests were carried out to find results in the optimum percentage of strength.
