A RESEARCH ON BEHAVIOR OF HIGH STRENGTH CONCRETE WITH USE OF CALCINED KAOLIN ALONG WITH ZEOLITE POWDER

Civil Engineering

The rapid increase in construction work coupled with a renewal of interest in wide range of concrete performance has created more challenges in the construction industry. These challenges cannot be met by designing mix proportions based on existing codes and methods of concrete mix design. Several methods and codes are available to serve as guide for mix design of NSC, HPC. It needs of concrete market and the economic and ecological needs, several researchers, all over the world, studied the beneficial effect of different types of SCM which reduce the use of cement and decrease the emission of CO2 and also cost effective. In this research we use eco-friendly and cost effective material Calcined kaolin and zeolite replace individual and combined as cement replacement material with constant silica fume content by weight of cement and understand the effect of material in high strength concrete of grade M60,M70 and M80 with use of high range water reducers by weight of water. We perform the test of fresh and hard property of concrete then perform durability test and find optimum amount for M60, M70 and M80.
