High performance concrete (HPC) can be made with cement alone or any combination of cement and mineral components, such as, blast furnace slag, fly ash, silica fume, kaolin, rice husk ash, and fillers, such as limestone powder [. In this study, three mixes of high performance concrete (HPC) with same water-binder ratio and different types of mineral admixtures were prepared. he compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity values were measured in accordance with the ASTM. The influence of fly ash (FA), blast furnace slag (BS) and silica fume (SF) on mechanical properties of HPC were compared and analyzed. Their mechanical properties are measured at 7 days and 28 days. The results showed that specimen BS45+SF5 performed better than specimens BS30+FA25+SF5 and BS65+SF5 for the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity.

It is essential that concrete component is made up with aggregate, sand, cement and water. But recently, Public concern is increasing of a variety structure, resource recycle. Also, According to heat of hydration rising, Concrete is making a causative of concrete-crack. Concrete-crack causes a falling-off in quality of concrete. Therefore, high-performance concrete is evaluated by concrete mechanical properties (compressive strength, splitting tensile strength) with different admixture (fixing W/B 34%), fly ash, blast furnace slag, and silica fume replacement ratio (50%, 50%, and 25%).

The use of mineral admixture such as fly ash, blast furnace slag and silica fume in making high performance concrete has increased. The objective of this study is to investigate mechanical properties of compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity of hardened high performance concrete.

Use a ternary binder for production of a high performance concrete with a compressive strengths between 120 and 170 MPa is presented. The water to binder ratio of the concrete is 0.225 and the binder is composed of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), condensed silica fume (CSF), ground limestone (L), fly ash (FA) and metakaoline (MK). The dosage of (M + CSF) is kept at a constant level for a better workability of fresh concrete. Different workability, flexural and compressive strengths were obtained for concretes with a constant cement and a metakaoline dosage, and for a constant dosage (FA + L) but a different ratio FA / L. An optimum composition was found and concretes for other tests were designed using this composition.

High-performance concrete is a very specific type of concrete. Its production is sensitive to both the quality of compounds used and the order of addition of particular compounds during the homogenization process. The mechanical properties were observed for four dosing procedures of each of the three tested concrete mixtures. The four dosing procedures were identical for the three mixes. The three mixes varied only in the type of supplementary cementitious material used and in water content. The water content difference was caused by variable k-value of particular additives. The water-to-binder ratio was kept constant for all the concretes. The additives used were metakaolin, fly ash and microsilica. The comparison of particular dosing procedures was carried out on the values of basic mechanical properties of concrete. The paper compares compressive strength and depth of penetration of water under pressure. Besides the comparsion of macro-mechanical properties, the effect of microsilica and fly ash additives on micro-mechanical properties was observed with the use of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and nanoindentation data analysis. Nanoindentation was used to determine the thickness and strength of interfacial transition zone (ITZ) for different sequence of addition of cement, additive and aggregate. The thickness obtained by nanoindentation was further investigated by SEM EDS line scanning.

Reactive Powder Concrete (RPC) is an ultra-high performance concrete which has superior mechanical and physical properties, and composed of cement and very fine powders such as quartz sand and silica fume with very low water/ binder ratio and Superplasticizer. Heat treatment is a well-known method that can further improve the performance of (RPC). The current research including an experimental study of the effect of different curing conditions on mechanical properties of reactive powder concrete (compressive strength, modulus of rupture and splitting tensile strength), the curing conditions includes three type of curing; immersion in water at temperature of 35 OC (which is considered as the reference-curing situation), immersion in water at temperature of 90 OC for 5 hours daily and curing with hot steam for 5 hours daily) until 28 days according to ASTM C684-99 [8]. This research includes also the study of effect of adding silica fume as percentage of cement weight on mechanical properties of reactive powder concrete for different percentage ratios (5%,10% and 15%). Super plasticizer is also used with ratio of (1.8%) by weight of cementitious material; constant water cement ratio (0.24) was used for all mixes. For each reactive concrete mix, it has been cast into a cubes of (150*150*150) (to conduct the compression test), a cylinders of 150mm diameter with 300mm height (to conduct split test) and prisms of (500*100*100)mm to conduct the modulus of rupture test. The results showed that the best method of curing (according to its enhancing the RPC mechanical properties) is the method of immersion in hot water at temperature 90 OC for the all silica fume percentages, and the best used silica fume percentage was (10%) for the all used curing methods.
