EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON HIGH PERFORMANCE CONCRETE USING SILICA FUME AND SUPERPLASTICIZER

Author : Dr.P.Vinayagam 1

Date of Publication :22nd February 2021

Abstract: This paper formulates a simplified mix design procedure for HPC by combining BIS and ACI code methods of mix design and available literature on HPC. Based on the above procedure M80 and M100 mixes are arrived at. These HPC mixes are tested experimentally for compression, split tension, flexure and workability. The performances of the design mixes are very good and the results are reported are in this paper. The durability characteristics of HPC are under progress.
