What is it about?

The effects of employing waterproof and supplemental cementitious materials, such as flyash ash, silica f ume, and nano silica, along with a water reduction agent, were examined to increase the effectiveness and performance of concrete

Why is it important?

This research presents an experimental study on the partial replacement of cement with waterproof or fly ash, silica fume, and nano silica and the effect of these additives on concrete properties, compressive strength, and absorption, noting the improvement in strength and reducing the absorbency of the mixtures that have been prepared. This investigation is anticipated to provide valuable insights into the properties of hardened concrete resulting from hydraulic or pozzolanic activity.

Perspectives

Very important experimental results and relations are obtained from this research.
