摘要：In this study, effects of mineral admixtures on the water permeability and compressive strength ofconcretes containing silica fume (SF) were experimentally investigated. The main parameter investigated in this studyis M20 grade concrete with partial replacement of cement by silica fume.They were incorporated into concrete at thelevels of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. This paper presents a detailed experimental study on compressive strength, splittensile strength and flexural strength at an age of 7and28 days. Test results indicate that use of silica fume in concretehas improved the performance of concrete in strength at a particular percentage replacement. Although the highestcompressive strengths of concretes observed was 10% silica fume mix for ordinary Portland cement and were reducedas the increase in the replacement ratios.
