Summary research was conducted to know the percentage of fibers optimized with the incorporation of variations of areca fibre

0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1,5%, 2%, 2.5% compared to the percentage of sand for concrete light K225 quality used cement Portland composite. The test results showed that optimal resistance by adding 0.5% at the age of 7 days to produce 165,18 kg/cm2 average 3610 grams of concrete cylinders weighing compression resistance, and 28 days performance 238,63 kg nut fibre concrete value/cm2 cylinder stretching g weight concrete compressive strength while optimal resistance to flexing of fibres by the addition of a nut of areca %, with an average of resistance to bending 88.8 kg maximum value/cm2. made calculations to determine the physical properties such as porosity and the density of the results obtained by higher bulk density porosity.

From the test results showed that the optimum value for the strength of concrete by adding fiber beans 0.5% at age 7 days to produce a compressive strength of 165.18 kg/cm2 with an average weight of 3610 grams of concrete cylinders, and at age 28 days to produce 238, 63 kg/cm2 of the strength of concrete cylinder with a weight of 3613 g while the optimum value for flexural strength of the fibers with the addition of a betel nut% with an average maximum flexural strength of 88.8 kg/cm2. calculations performed to determine the physical properties such as porosity and density of the results obtained that for a higher porosity than the bulk density.
