Study on Properties of High Strength Concrete using Nano Silica and Micro Silica.

Abstract

Concrete is the most versatile material. Due to the persistent and continuous demands made on concrete to meet the various difficult requirements, extensive and wide spread research work is being carried out in the area of concrete technology. Engineers are continually pushing the limits to improve its performance with the help of innovative chemical admixtures and supplementary cementitious materials like fly ash, silica fume, and granulated blast furnace slag, steel slag etc.
