Abstract:
High-performance concrete can be produced by adding silica fume to concrete to reduce permeability, increase abrasion resistance, and improve resistance to chlorides and sulfates, but only recently has its use become popular in India. A number of high profile projects constructed using silica fume high-performance concrete in India are highlighted in this article.
