Locust beam pod solution (LBPS) was prepared by extraction from the outer leathery cover of the pod soaked in water for twenty four hours in ten different concentrations of known weight of dried locust bean pod cover in 20 litres of clean water. Using ten levels of these concentrations, five sandcrete blocks of size 150mm cube were produced for each concentration, making a total of fifty blocks and the compressive strengths at 28 days were determined. Using a concentration of 50g/l, twenty blocks were produced with 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40% respectively by weight of cement reduced making a total of 180 blocks. They were subjected to compressive strength test on 7, 14, 21 and 28 days respectively, crushing five blocks in each day to determine their average compressive strength. In order to investigate the effect of duration of soaking the locust bean pod cover in water on the compressive strength of the sandcrete blocks, five blocks were produced using the same concentration of 50g/l but soaked in water for 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 days respectively and their compressive strengths were determined at 28 days. It was found that the higher the concentration of the LBPS, the more the compressive strength and soaking the locust bean pod cover for more than 24 hours is not necessary as the compressive strength tends to decrease. In conclusion, up to 25% by weight of cement can be saved by using locust bean pod solution in moulding the sandcrete blocks.
