Abstract

Polymer modified mortar has been implemented to prolong lifetime of concrete and to increase its performance. Previous researches have proven that using Gracilaria Sp. will increase mortar and concrete compressive strength. Since sugar based admixture contributes great bonding mechanism , honey becomes alternative for compressive strength increase. This research wants to investigate the compressive strength of natural polymer modified mortar and concrete using honey and Gracilaria Sp. The compressive strength design is 20 MPa. There are two steps in the research, pre-experiment and main experiment. Results of pre-experiments used and developed to be implemented in main experiment. Main experiment found that the natural polymer modified mortar and concrete using honey and Gracilaria Sp. Increase the compressive strength as 29.19% compare to the control specimens. Optimum composition for natural polymer modified mortar is using honey and Gracilaria Sp. as 0.03% and 0.1% of cement weight, while for natural polymer modified concrete is using honey and Gracilaria Sp.as 0.03% and 0.05% of cement weight.
