Analytical models for compressive strength and tensile strength of high performance concrete are presented. High performance concrete was developed using binary and ternary blending combinations consisting of ordinary Portland cement, pulverised fuel ash and silica fume. Pulverised fuel ash and silica fume were incorporated as partial cement replacements for the preparation of various combinations of blended systems. Compressive strength and tensile strength of concrete containing ordinary Portland cement, pulverised fuel ash and silica fume at various ages are reported. Based on the experimentally obtained results, analytical prediction models were developed. These models enabled the establishment of isoresponse contours showing the interactive influence between the various parameters investigated.

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.

In this study, some experimental investigations on the development of mechanical properties with age of high performance concrete (HPC) incorporated with blast furnace slag with fly ash or silica fume have been reported. Four different blended HPC were prepared in 0.40 water-binder ratio. At every four mixtures, the compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity at 7 and 28 days have been observed for HPC developments. Consequently, only replacement of silica fume significantly increases the mechanical properties in terms of compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of elasticity.

Coarse Aggregates

High-performance concrete was prepared by using ceramic waste as coarse aggregate. The influences of several factors, such as the contents of ceramic coarse aggregates, fly ashes and silica fumes, on the properties of concrete material were investigated. The results show that the compressive strength of semi-porcelain coarse aggregate concrete are slightly lower than that of natural concrete, and the splitting tensile strength and the ratio of compressive strength and splitting tensile strength is similar to the ones of natural concrete. After fly ash and silica fume mixed, the compressive strength, the splitting tensile strength and the resistance to water penetration of concrete with semi-porcelain coarse aggregate increase significantly with the increase of silica fume content which meet the requirements of high-performance concrete. Concrete with orcelain coarse aggregate is only suitable for low strength concrete.

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.

With the improvement of concrete materials and the emergence of new materials, adding silica fume to high-performance concrete (HPC) has been one of the important ways in concrete technology. In this paper, through experimental study on the mechanical performance of HPC with 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% silica fume replacing cement for different water-binder ratio, along with polycarboxylates high performance water-reducing admixture, silica fume has large effects on 28d compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength of the HPC. Meanwhile, due to the different level of water-binder ratio, the relationship between split tensile strength, flexural strength and compressive strength is also obvious linear.

This investigation aimed to study the effect of nano metakaolin ( NMK ) on some properties (compressive strength ,splitting tensile strength & water absorption ) of concrete. The nano metakaolin (NMK) was prepared by thermal activation of kaolin clay for 2 hours at 750 Ċ. The cement used in this investigation consists of ordinary Portland cement (OPC). The OPC was partially substituted by NMK of ( 3, 5 & 10%) by weight of cement. The C45 concrete was prepared , using water/cement ratio ( W/c) of (0.53) .The Water absorption was tested at 28 days while the tests (compressive strength ,splitting tensile strength) were tested at ages of (7, 28, 60,& 90) days . The compressive strength and splitting tensile strength of concrete with NMK were higher than that of reference concrete with the same W/c ratio.The improvement in the compressive strength when using NMK was (42.2, 55.8 , 63.1% ) at age 28 days for ( 3%, 5%, &10% ) replacement of NMK respectively whereas the improvement in the splitting tensile strength was (0% , 36% & 46.8 %) at age of 28 days when using (3%, 5%, &10% ) NMK respectively. The improvement in the water absorption was (16.6%, 21.79%, &25.6 ) when using (3, 5, &10% )NMK.

Cement Pastes

Concrete made from ordinary Portland cement is one of the most widely used construction materials due to its excellent compressive strength. However, concrete lacks ductility resulting in low tensile strength and flexural strength, and poor resistance to crack formation. Studies have demonstrated that the addition of graphene oxide (GO) nanosheet can effectively enhance the compressive and flexural properties of ordinary Portland cement paste, confirming GO nanosheet as an excellent candidate for using as nano-reinforcement in cement-based composites. To date, the majority of studies have focused on cement pastes and mortars. Only limited investigations into concretes incorporating GO nanosheets have been reported. This paper presents an experimental investigation on the slump and physical properties of concrete reinforced with GO nanosheets at additions from 0.00% to 0.08% by weight of cement and a water–cement ratio of 0.5. The study demonstrates that the addition of GO nanosheets improves the compressive strength, flexural strength, and split tensile strength of concrete, whereas the slump of concrete decreases with increasing GO nanosheet content. The results also demonstrate that 0.03% by weight of cement is the optimum value of GO nanosheet dosage for improving the split tensile strength of concrete.

The compressive strength of silica fume concretes was investigated at low water-cementitious materials ratios with a naphthalene sulphonate superplasticizer. The results show that partial cement replacement up to 20% produce, higher compressive strengths than control concretes, nevertheless the strength gain is less than 15%. In this paper we propose a model to evaluate the compressive strength of silica fume concrete at any time. The model is related to the water-cementitious materials and silica-cement ratios. Taking into account the author's and other researchers’ experimental data, the accuracy of the proposed model is better than 5%.
