Abstract
This paper provides a contemporary review of the usage of Ground Granulated Blast-furnace Slag (GGBS), Silica Fume, and Nano Silica in Materialistic form over the deterministic aspects of conventional concrete. The main purpose of this literature learning is to enumerate the effect of GGBS, Silica Fume, and Nano Silica on strength of concrete. The GGBS, Silica Fume and Nano-silica is a restored substitute as compared to orthodox additives like CaCl2 and SiO2 because of their effectiveness with a lesser amount of consumption. It was found that the GGBS, Silica Fume, and nano-silica have an optimistic effect on the unconfined compressive strength, flexural strength, split tensile strength of concrete.
