High Strength Concrete

Find Concrete Admixture Suppliers

Admixtures containing microsilica (condensed silica fume) are used to meet high strength and low permeability requirements.

Benefits include reduced permeability, increased compressive and flexural strengths, and increased durability.

Applications include high-strength structural columns, less permeable parking garage decks, and abrasion resistant hydraulic structures.

Silica fume can be used in concrete to produce compressive strengths approaching 20,000 psi under jobsite conditions. This admixture can be added in a slurry or in a dry form, whichever meets the batching equipment needs. In either case, performance is the same.
