Abstract
In today's era of modern construction techniques addition of silica fume in concrete to get high strength and superior performance is normal practice. Although we utilise the waste silica fume in concrete, there are many other waste products, bi-products which needs to be utilized in a scientific manner to prevent the deterioration of the environment. Also, all utilization should be done in ways which are helpful to mankind otherwise they will create more haphazard threats. In this study, the effects of industrial wastewater on silica fumed concrete were experimentally investigated. The main objective of the study was to replace the use of fresh water in casting and curing of concrete structures with industrial wastewater and to analyze the effect on various parameters like Tensile, Compressive and flexural strength, Slump, acid resistivity, corrosion of silica fumed concrete. The silica fume was incorporated in concrete at levels of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% & 30% while water-cement ratios were 0.45 to 0.49. All tests were carried out after wet curing of 7,14 & 28 days. Tests results show that though silica fume and industrial wastewater both can be used in high-performance concrete, they should be in proper proportion.
