Abstract
This paper reports the study with experimental investigation of Silica Fume (SF) concrete made with Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA). Compressive strength of concrete is considered as a measure to determine the strength of concrete with different age and different cement composition. The major variables of this studied includes workability and compressive strength. Concrete mixtures are prepared under the same proportions, by different replacement of SF content and also used super plasticizer. SF was used to replace PCC at dosage levels of 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% by weight of the binder. The effect of cement substitution was evaluated and both experimental details and preliminary results are presented. The result show that the compressive strength of concrete containing SF was significantly improved and that cement replacement up to 15% SF shown the superior enhancement.
