摘要:This experimental work was carried out to investigate the strength of the mechanical properties of Nanosilica concrete and compared with the normal cement concrete. In this study, the Nano silica is used as a supplementarycementitious replacement material for cement. The silica has been subjected to ball milling technique and the size ofNano silica has been confirmed to its characterization by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analysis. TheCompression test is conducted for various percentage replacements of silica to find the optimum percentage of silicareplacement. From the test, 23% replacement of cement to silica achieves the maximum strength. Hence, themechanical properties such as Compression, Tensile and Flexural strength test were experimentally studied with23% of cement replaced with Nano silica and the results were compared with that of Normal Cement Concrete (NCC).
