Abstract

Concrete is most important engineering material. By adding or replacing of some of material may change
the properties of concrete. Studies have been carried out to investigate the possibility of utilizing a broad range of
materials as partial replacement materials for cement in the production of concrete. This present research work is
mainly focused on one of such method in which Micro silica is used to improve the compressive and flexural strength of
concrete. It gives the brief information regarding how exactly Micro silica affects strength and durability parameters like
compressive strength, flexural strength of concrete.
