Abstract

In this review, the performance characteristic and development of eco-friendly high-strength and high- durable concrete incorporating Alccofine and metakaolin in binary and ternary system of mix are discussed. Current growths in the field of high- strength and high- durable concrete (HDC) marked a massive leap towards the improved durability, high modulus of elasticity and a superior compressive strength in the advanced building materials, particularly for industrial applications is likely to vary and hence the identification of HPC will vary based on w/c ratio, strength, and durability characteristics. Nowadays, HPC employs blended cements that incorporating mineral admixtures like metakaolin and Alccofine. In distinctive cases, Metakaolin and Alccofine contents would exceed the total cement by 15 %. Metakaolin, having virtuous pozzolanic properties and Alccofine, a larger value of explicit surface area with prior delay in failure of concrete gaining materials is mixed to progress the workability, load resistance and durability by the development of C-S-H bond which reduces the porosity, and increased resistance to chemical attack. The mechanical and durability properties of eco-friendly high-strength and high-durable concrete including mineral admixtures like metakaolin and Alccofine are discussed. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
