Concrete is one part of an infrastructure that is very commonly used, materials widely used in concrete, such as sand and gravel, come from nature that are limited and will run out if used continuously. Oil palm shell (OPS) waste is an alternative that can be used to solve this problem. In this study, the proportion of OPS used was 0%, 25%, 50%, and 75% as a partial substitute for coarse aggregate. Pre- and post-corrosion specimens use beam sizes with dimensions of 100 mm × 100 mm × 500 mm. The specimen has a corrosion rate of 7%. The specimen is tested for flexural strength, in addition, the specimen is tested using the Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) method at the age of 28 days and after acceleration corrosion. The NDT methods used in this study were resistivity and impact-echo as evaluation tools for the influence of OPS and fiber on corroded concrete. Based on the results, the lowest value of resistivity was 10.87 kohm/cm on 0% OPS post-corrosion specimen, and the highest value of resistivity of 24.12 kohm/cm on 0% OPS pre-corrosion specimen. Meanwhile, the impact-echo test obtained the lowest value of 2625.33 kHz on 75% OPS post-corrosion specimens and the highest impact-echo value of 11725.26 kHz on 0% OPS post-corrosion specimens. With the increase in the percentage of OPS, the resistivity obtained in pre-corrosion concrete will decrease as well as the impact echo value, except for the 75% OPS specimen, while in post-corrosion specimen impact-echo and resistivity are inversely proportional. The greater the percentage of OPS in concrete, the resistivity value tends to increase but the frequency of impact-echo tends to decrease except in specimens with 75% OPS. © (2024), (Penerbit UTHM).
