Abstract

The requirement for high-performance concrete has increased day by day due to its better performance. Due to its strength, durability, and high modulus of elasticity, high-performance concrete has predominantly been employed in constructing large-scale civil engineering structures, e.g., tunnels, bridges, pavements, and high-rise buildings. The various characteristics of HPC, like workability, strength, modulus of elasticity, durability in terms of permeability of fluids through concrete, sorptivity, and resistance to chemical attack, have been reviewed in this study. The properties above are generally assessed while constructing any concrete structure. It is well known that a million numbers of pores are available in concrete structures. The interconnected pores affect the durability of the concrete, which can be reduced by using the SCMs. The most used SCMs, i.e., ground granulated blast furnace slag, fly ash, and silica fume, in HPC, are the by-product of waste materials obtained from industries and are harmful to the environment. Stringent environmental norms help reduce the varying degrees of environmental impacts of throwing away such waste products. The present study highlights the utilization of mineral and chemical admixtures, as the admixtures are used to enhance the chemical, physical and mechanical properties of concrete. The present study suggests reusing these waste materials to improve the performance of concrete, which impacts society.
