Abstract |
Concrete is one kind of a composite material that is formed of fine and rough or harsh in texture bonded together with one kind of cement paste to get harden over time. There are various types of concretes used for constructing walls like lime-based concrete which forms by Portland cement and some of them are formed by hydraulic cements like calcium aluminate cements. Although there are various types of composite materials, one among the most commonly used composite is asphalt concrete, mostly used for constructing the road surfaces formed by a material like bitumen. The main role of concrete is development of infrastructure i.e. for buildings and highways. If we look at the other side of the concrete usage, cost plays a vital role in choosing the best and accurate composition. In order to achieve the efficient mixture, there was a high strength concrete which is formed by a fresh water to give smooth states. In this paper we mainly focus on effective utilization of mineral admixture i.e. replacing fly in the place of cement & also adding a super plasticizer CONPLAST SP 430 as Mineral Admixture to obtained High Strength Concrete. By using the fly-ash in the composition we can able to reduce a lot of excess water usage during the construction. |
