A designed experimental study has been conducted to investigate the effect of silica fume on mechanical properties and carbonation resistance of concrete, a large number of experiments have been carried out in this study. The results indicate that the addition of silica fume has improved the compression strength and elastic modulus of concrete. A considerable increase for the compression strength and elastic modulus of the concrete was observed by increasing the dosage of silica fume. Besides, the addition of silica fume can improve the carbonation resistance of the concrete composite evidently, and the carbonation resistance is becoming better and better as the silica fume content is increasing gradually.

In the present study the effect of various additives (silica sand, silica fume, zeolite and cenospheres) as well as the aeration on the properties (consistency, density, compressive and bending strength) of lightweight concrete was studied. Density, compressive and bending strength of the lightweight concrete were substantially reduced by replacing silica sand with censopheres or by adding air entraining agent to the grout used for the preparation of the samples. Silica fume and zeolite admixture improved mechanical properties of the samples. Specific compressive strength of the cenospheres containing samples is comparable or even higher than the ones made of the mixes without the cenospheres.
