I. INTRODUCTION
The modern age of building projects is all about finding
new components that can make building materials that are
long-lasting, economical, and eco-friendly. Oyster shells are
the hard exoskeleton of various mollusks in the family
Ostreoidea. Empty Seashells found no value to people and are
typically disregarded as wastes. This Pulverized Oyster shell
will act as a filler for Fiber Cement Board Production
reinforcing with the Pineapple Fibers.
The basic recipe for Fiber Cement Board has just four
ingredients: Portland cement, Filler, Cellulose fiber, and
water. Various physical, mechanical and chemical properties
of shells, like, oyster shells as a sand replacement, a partial
and total coarse aggregate replacement, filler, and cement
replacement, in the form of complete, crushed, ground, or
powder, have been investigated previously (Olivia, Mifshella,
& Darmayanti, 2015).
Based on the study of Lukmanova, Mukhametrakhimov, &
Gilmanshin (2019) they said the most common type of fiber
cement is asbestos cement products. But this paper focuses
only on the use of Pineapple Leaf Fiber which is also
abundant here in Mindanao.
