  • Abstract:
  • To create more flexible and strong concrete, the mechanical characteristics of concrete composites incorporating nano silica were examined in this work. Concrete was mixed with varying amounts of Nano-silica powder for this reason. Investigations were conducted on the sample's morphology and mechanical characteristics. By adding the Nano-silica, the mechanical qualities like flexural, tensile, and compressive strength were greatly enhanced. The ideal composition, with 2.5 weight percent to 3.5 weight percent of nano silica, was attained; in comparison to the next concrete, an increase in tensile strength, compressive strength, and flexural strength was anticipated for 0.25% to 1.28%, respectively. Images captured by a scanning electron microscope demonstrated that the interfacial transition zone between the cement particles was improved by adding nano-silica to concrete
