Abstract

The durability of concrete structures is a critical factor in ensuring long-term performance, especially in aggressive environmental conditions. This research focuses on the optimization of concrete mix design by incorporating additional cementitious materials (ACMs) such as fly ash, silica fume, and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS). These supplementary materials are known to enhance the microstructure of concrete, reduce permeability, and improve resistance to chemical attacks. The study involves the design of multiple concrete mix variations with different percentages of ACMs, followed by laboratory testing for compressive strength, water absorption, chloride penetration, and sulfate resistance. Results indicate that optimized mixes with suitable combinations of ACMs significantly improve concrete durability without compromising mechanical properties. This optimization approach not only extends the service life of concrete structures but also contributes to sustainability by reducing the reliance on Portland cement and minimizing carbon emissions
