Development of useful composite materials out of agricultural waste has become a trend in waste recycling industries. Such development made the construction industry utilize these agricultural wastes in the production of composite boards. In this paper, three types of available agricultural wastes in the province – peanut shell, corn husks and banana sheath – were independently utilized in the production of composite boards. Their physical and mechanical characteristics were determined and compared to the standards set by Philippine National Standards (PNS).
