The shrinkage cracking of concrete plays an important role to the accelerated deterioration and shortening the service life of concrete structures. The mineral admixture will be a perfect component of high performance concrete and its utilization will be a valuable resource for recycling. Early age cracking characteristics of concrete with compound admixtures, such as steel slag, blast furnace slag, fly ash, are studied in this paper using plate test method. The better anti-cracking performance of concrete will be realized when blast furnace slag replacing cement at 30%, steel slag and fly ash as the equal mixture components replacing cement at 30%, three kinds of admixtures replacing cement at 30% under the proper proportion.

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.

The strength, expansion and amount of scaling of concrete with compound mineral admixture (CMA) from steel slag, granulated blast furnace slag and fly ash were studied. The result shows that damage by crystallization press from sulfate attack when concrete was exposed to sulfate environments under wetting–drying alternation is much larger than that from sulfate chemical attack. Adding CMA to concrete could reduce the damage from expansion of concrete caused by sulfate chemical attack, but the resistance of concrete to damage by crystallization press from sulfate attack was remarkably reduced.

Influence of compounded mineral admixtures on shrinkage and early-age cracking behaviors of concrete was studied, based on the fellow factors: fly ash to blast furnace slag(denoted as BSF) ratio, fly ash-metakaolin ratio, BSF-silica fume ratio. Research shows that the Pozzolanic admixtures compounded with cementitious admixtures have complementary and synergistic effect for hydration progress of concrete, which can enhance the volume stability and cracking behaviors of concrete. However, the pozzolanic admixture compounded with other pozzolanic admixture, two pozzolanic admixtures will grab Ca(OH)2 resource. And then if the dosage of mineral admixture is higher, the compounding will result to decrease the volume stability and cracking behaviors of concrete.

Fly ash and blast furnace slag dumped not only pollutes environment, but also consumes landfills. With the aim of sustainable development, the isolated contribution of fly ash and blast furnace slag in concrete to the mechanical properties of frame concrete is investigated. An experimental study is conducted to investigate mechanical properties of high performance concrete. Test variables are the replacement levels for FA series (10%, 20% and 30%) and for BS series (10%, 30%, 50% and 70%) in place of part of cement. Compressive, splitting tensile strength, modulus of elasticity and flexural strength tests were carried out to evaluate the mechanical properties for up to 7days and 28 days. The mechanical properties of high performance concrete compared with predicted values by ACI 318-02 Code, EC 2-02, JSCE Code, KCI Code and proposed Eq.

This paper addresses the results of an extensive experimental study on the compressive, splitting tensile strength modulus of elasticity in long-term. These tests were carried out to investigate the mechanical properties of HPC for 56 and 91days. In this work, High performance concrete was designed a water-binder ratio of 0.40. In addition, three different concrete mixes were used in these specimens. The results properties of HPC with fly Ash, blast furnace slag and silica fume were effective for compressive strength splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity improvement between 56 to 91 curing days.

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%).
