Previous researches have proven that natural polymer modified concrete achieved high compressive strength and durability. This research wanted to investigate compressive and splitting tensile strength of polymer modified concrete using amylum and honey. The polymer modified concrete has compressive strength design of f’c = 30 MPa . There were 3 categories and 24 compositions for c each category, A-F and control specimens. Compressive test was conducted at ages 7, 14 and 28 days while splitting tensile test at age 28 days. The result met conclusions that optimum composition of polymer modified concrete with amylum and honey for best performance of compressive and splitting tensile strength achieved by category 2 on specimen KT-0.03-G and also amylum and honey provide good bond mechanism and compactness for natural polymer modified concrete.
