ABSTRACT
Efforts for improving the performance of concrete over the past few years suggest
that cement replacement materials along with mineral and chemical admixtures can
increase the strength and durability performance of concrete. In this paper literatures
from few researchers were studied on strength and durability performance of concrete
with Alccofine and Nano silica (NS). Alccofine and Nano silica are a new generation
concrete material for high strength concrete which is important in respect of
workability as well as strength. These materials are pozzolanic materials that are
bringing technical revolution in the field of civil engineering. These materials are easy
to mix and can be mixed directly with cement, ultrafine particle provide better and
smooth surface finish. It was found that the results of these materials increase the
strength to a large extent.
