Influence of metakaolin, fly ash and nano silica on mechanical and durability properties of concrete

Concrete is widely used construction material for the development of built environment which consumes huge amount of cement, around 4.3 billion metric ton all over the world. Reinforced concrete construction exposed to harsh environment such as chloride bound air causes deterioration in concrete thr...

Jalal, A. Concrete is widely used construction material for the development of built environment which consumes huge amount of cement, around 4.3 billion metric ton all over the world. Reinforced concrete construction exposed to harsh environment such as chloride bound air causes deterioration in concrete through its pore structure by corroding the steel bar. The use of pozzolanic material i.e. metakaolin (MK), fly ash (FA), silica fume (SF), nano silica (NS) can be used as partially cement replacing material which not only reduces the pores in concrete but improves the mechanical, durability properties and microstructure of concrete.
