Abstract
Mineral admixtures can be added to concrete to replace some of the cement, increasing its overall strength. Fly ash (FA) and silica fume (SF) are two often used mineral admixtures. A series of experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of adding varied amounts of fly ash and a consistent amount of silica fume on concrete strength by using the same amount of substitute for cement and the same water-binder ratio. The results show that fly ash has a certain influence on improving the fluidity of concrete, and the influence on the strength of concrete is mainly in the later period. The influence of silica fume on the fluidity and strength of concrete is better than that of fly ash, and the main influence of silica fume is becoming very strong. The strength of concrete combined with fly ash and silica fume increases initially before decreasing with the addition of mineral admixtures. All of the industrial waste used in this study as fine aggregate proved to be an effective filler material, filling the internal vacuum of the concrete and increasing the strength attributes of normal strength concrete. The present paper focusses on to study the mechanical properties of normal concrete with composites concrete with various amount of fly ash and quarry dust as a particle characterization and the impact of adding SF to concrete.
Keywords: Fly ash, Silica fume, Steel fibre, Mechanical properties, Quarry dust.
