Abstract

This study focuses on the production of high-performance concrete (HPC) using pozzolanic materials as partial replacements for cement, with the aim of achieving high strength, flowability, and durability. XRD tests were conducted to analyze the constituents of the pozzolanic materials. A water-reducing additive, such as a superplasticizer, was used to maintain a low water-cement ratio. Synthetic fiber was added in different percentages to the concrete mix, and two types of cement were used. Various tests, including compressive, splitting, and flexural tests, were conducted on mortar, cubes, cylinders, and prisms. The porosity and permeability of the concrete were also tested. The study concludes that a significant number of trial mixes are required to select the appropriate combination of ingredients to achieve unique performance that cannot be attained from standard concrete using existing approaches.
