Wood waste is abundant, and its utilization is still relatively limited. Wood waste can be used as an additive in concrete production, which can help reduce construction costs. The use of wood waste as a concrete additive can also minimize pollution and maximize the strength and quality of concrete when mixed in concrete production. This research aims to compare the compressive strength of normal concrete with concrete containing wood powder soaked in freshwater for 21 days and 28 days. The research was conducted by adding wood powder that had undergone sieving, and the wood powder used was fine powder that passed through a 100-mesh sieve or was retained on a 50-mesh sieve. Based on the results of the research conducted, the compressive strength of normal concrete was found to be
14.99 MPa, the compressive strength of concrete with a 2.5% wood powder mixture was 15.84 MPa, and the compressive strength of concrete with a 5% mixture was
18.04 MPa after 28 days of immersion.
