OPTIMIZATION OF THE COMPOSITION OF A HIGH-PERFORMANCE CONCRETE

High-performance concrete (HPC) is that which has a low water-binder ratio. This paper responds to questions regarding HPC composition, including queries about water and superplasticizer amounts, the use of silica fume, and the maximum price for silica fume. A factorial design plan involving 18 laboratory concrete batches provides ample data to answer these optimization inquiries.
