Abstract:

Today, Concrete is widely used material in the construction. Portland cement is the most important ingredient of concrete. The production of the cement has been greatly increased in recent years. As we all knows that this higher production of cement is resulting in the emission of CO2 gas and increasing a lot of environmental pollution. Subtitues Supplementary cementitious materials are the materials which are finely ground solid materials and used in partial replace of cement. This paper reviews work carried out on the use of combinations of silica fume and metakaoline mix as a partially pozzolanic replacement for cement in M30 grade concrete. Metakaoline and silica fume content of 75% and 25% used respectively as a replacement. This paper presents a detailed experimental study on Compressive strength, split tensile strength, flexural strength at age of 7 and 28 days. Durability test was also studied in which percentage of weight loss is compared with normal concrete. From the resent research work using SF and MK, it is evident that it is a very effective pozzolanic material and it effectively enhance the strength parameters of concrete.
