  • Abstract:
  • The experimental investigation is carried out to determine the compressive strength capability of concrete containing silica fume and fly ash as supplementary cementitious materials which is submerged in artificial marine environment which majorly contains sulphate and chlorides ions in it. Cube size of 150mm is used to determine the compressive strength of concrete and comparative study of compressive strength of concrete cured in potable water and concrete submerged in marine environment is done. Total of 6 design mixes are prepared with 4 percent increment of each cementitous materials as a replacement of cement. Workability of each design mix is observed and how the compressive strength affects on concrete specimen submerged in marine environment is found out.
