        abstract = {This study aims to evaluate the flexural behavior of concrete through the combined application of nanosilica and partial replacement of fly ash in cementitious materials, with experimental results compared against Artificial Neural Network (ANN) analysis. By incorporating nanosilica as a supplementary cementitious material and partially substituting conventional fly ash, the research seeks to achieve significant improvements in concrete performance. A comprehensive investigation is conducted to assess the effects of nanosilica addition and fly ash replacement on the mechanical properties of concrete. The study also aims to determine the optimal replacement level for fly ash and the appropriate dosage of nanosilica, alongside identifying the most effective dispersion solution and method to ensure uniform distribution of nanosilica within the concrete matrix. Through this work, valuable insights are offered toward enhancing the mechanical performance of concrete using innovative materials and advanced techniques.Keywords: Concrete, Nanosilica, Flyash replacement, Flexural Strength, ANN},
