Experimental studies on mechanical properties of high strength concrete using fly ash and alccofine.

The dissertation work is focused on the effect of fly ash and alccofine 1203 to achieve High Strength Concrete. High strength concrete requires high amount of cement than the nominal grade. This work focused on the performance of various mixtures which are partially replacing with cement includes 30% fly ash with 0%, 4%, 8% and 12% alccofine 1203, respectively. Concrete specimens are cast for M60 grade as per mix design and the specimens are tested for its mechanical properties. Ultrasonic pulse velocity test was also performed to assess the quality of concrete. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
