High-strength concrete enhanced with silica fume provides architects and engineers with greater design flexibility. Traditionally used in high-rise buildings for the benefit of smaller columns (increasing usable space) high-strength concrete containing silica fume is often used in precast and prestressed girders allowing longer spans in structural bridge designs.
Silica Fume in High-strength concrete advantages:
Longer service life, anticorrosion, higher strength, granule accumulation and mixing material design, prevent silica alkali reaction, improve fluidity, shotcrete concrete.
This provides architects and engineers with greater design flexibility.
