| General note | ABSTRACT<br/><br/>The search of advanced and innovative techniques to produce high performance and<br/>economical constructions material has been one of the active areas of the research of<br/>today. One of the techniques is to use by products generated from industries while<br/>producing various products. Silica fume is also one of the industrial by-products being<br/>produced from Ferro silica industries. IT is used in the concrete as supplementary<br/>cementitious material rather it is being considered as essential component to produce high<br/>performance concrete. This experimental study reports the effect of silica fume as the<br/>partial replacement of cement used in mortar. During this study the mortar of thee<br/>proportions; l: l, and 1:3 were produced With partial replacement of cement by Silica<br/>fume (S.F) being 5% and 10% by weight of total binder. Effect of silica fume is studied<br/>in terms of the strength development of mortar. For this purpose the specimens were<br/>tested at the ages of Iday, 7day, 28days, 60days and 91days. Super plasticizer (S.P) was<br/>added as 1% of the cement/ (binder) by weight to adjust the required workability. Entire<br/>the specimens were cured in water up to the age of testing. In addition normal mortar of<br/>same proportions without S.F were also cast and tested to compare the results. Results<br/>revealed that the mortars With S.F exhibited not only remarkably higher compressive<br/>strength at 28 days and later but also unlike the other cementitious materials, high early<br/>age strength too.<br/> |
