Abstract
Addressing high carbon footprints is a critical global problem in cement production. Using environmentally friendly materials has proven to be a solution to environmental challenges. In this study, High-Strength Concrete of M60 is produced with Natural Zeolite and industrial waste materials. The combinations of 5 % zeolite and varying percentages of industrial wastes such as Silica Fume, Metakaolin, and Fly Ash are tested for mechanical properties. The laboratory test data is compared with numerical simulations to assess the accuracy and determine the error percentage for concrete strength predictions. The process involves the development of numerical solutions by ANSYS to predict strength. The developed numerical solution determines the accuracy of identifying the difference between the experimental and numerical data. The present research on the comparison of experimental and numerical data by ANSYS showed the lowest error percentage, which is acceptable for all the strength properties of concrete.
