The construction of concrete structures using silica fume (SF) additions is a common practice because it is well known that this pozzolanic material improves the compressive strength of concrete, among many other mechanical and physical properties. The response of a structure under dynamic actions i
The effects of silica fume and aggregate size on the softening response and brittleness of high strength concretes were investigated by measuring the fracture energy GF, the characteristic length l,, and brittleness index B. Based on the fracture tests and microscopic studies at the aggregate-matrix
In the previous paper [1] modifications of Abrams and Bolomey formulas well applicable to evaluate the influence of fly ash upon the strength of concrete were proposed. In the submitted paper we present the example of utilization of the general form of proposed modifications to evaluate the complex
Impact resistance and strength performance of concrete mixtures with 0.36 and 0.46 water-cement ratios made with polypropylene and silica fume are examined. Polypropylene fiber with 12-mm length and four volume fractions of 0%, 0.2%, 0.3% and 0.5% are used. In pre-determined mixtures, silica fume is
