This study investigates the viability of Cocoa Pod Husk Waste Ash [CPHWA] as a partial replacement for cement in concrete production due to the high cost of cement and its adverse environmental impacts in Ile-Oluji, Ondo State, Nigeria. The process involved the use of Concrete cubes which were produced with CPHWA at three different ages [7days, 14days, and 28days] with replacement levels of 0%,5%,10%, and 15%. The results show that a 5% replacement of CPHWA yielded concrete with moderate workability, while a 10% replacement achieved compressive strengths within the desired range of 20 N/mm² to 25 N/mm² after 28 days of curing. These findings suggest promising prospects for integrating CPHWA into concrete production, offering potential benefits for the construction industry and civil engineering projects in terms of cost-effectiveness and environmental sustainability.
