General note ABSTRACT<br/><br/><br/>The world is looking at the use of advanced materials and almost all the fields of engineering<br/>Nowadays. The same trend is observed in field or construction engineering in order<br/>the performance of construction materials One of the areas is to use silica fume (S.F) as<br/>a cementations material the cement to produce high performance concrete. SF is a<br/>byproduct from ferro -silicon industry, It is believed that the use of silica fume in concrete a<br/>partial replacement not only increases the strength of concrete but its durability also. The use of<br/>SF also facilitates the disposal of industrial otherwise it needs a lot of the area to be<br/>dumped and also causing the environmental hazardous effects. This experimental study is<br/>undertaken to investigate the effect of silica fume on the strength properties of concrete when it<br/>is used as a partial replacement. The silica fume was used from 0-20% by total weight of cement<br/>with an increment of 2.5%. The concrete was produced with the ratio of I with w/c ratio of<br/>0.48 and 0.50. The specimens of standard size were cast and tested at 28-days age. The<br/>Effectiveness of S.F was investigated in terms of compressive and tensile strength of concrete.<br/>The results were compared to those of concrete without S.F. The results revealed that the<br/>Compressive and tensile strength of concrete adequately enhances with the use of SF.<br/><br/>
