The term Concrete Mix Design is the process of selecting suitable ingredients of concrete and determining their relative amounts with the objective of producing a concrete of the required, strength, durability, and workability as economically as possible. The proportioning of ingredient of concrete is governed by the required performance of concrete in 2 stages, namely the plastic and the hardened stage. If the plastic concrete is not workable, it cannot be properly placed and compacted. The property of workability, therefore, becomes a vital importance.The compressive strength of hardened concrete which is generally considered to be an index of its other properties, depends upon many factors, e.g. quality and quantity of cement, water and aggregates; batching and mixing; placing, compaction and curing. The aim of this study is to evaluate the high performance of concrete containing supplementary cementations materials such as Alccofine.. In the present study, the effect of Alccofine on properties of concrete has been studied.
