Abstract
This study presents experimental work on the use of Silica Fume (SF) and waste tires chips in the concrete. Distinctive outcome from several researches have been studied, particularly emphasizing on the fresh and hardened properties of concrete when blended with Silica Fume (Micro-silica or Nano-silica) & waste tires chips (for single doping only) after that an experimental study concrete of grade M30 is considered and mix design is done as IS: 10262-2019, cement is replaced by silica fume up to 20% & coarse aggregate is replaced by waste rubber tires chips up to 20 %. Once the optimum percent of silica fume content is determined, optimum percent of aggregate replacement is determined. Here the effect of chemical treatment of tire chips using sodium hydroxide solution is also studied..
