Utilization of industrial waste materials products in concrete is gaining importance all around the world. Concrete is the basic engineering material used in most of the civil engineering structures. Concrete like other engineering materials needs to be designed for properties like strength, durability, workability and cohesion. Hypo sludge is such an industrial waste produced in plenty by paper mills. Concrete of M60 grade are investigated with silica fume as powder along with Hypo sludge. The test was carried out to evaluate the mechanical properties like slump test and compressive strength of 7 and 28 days and split tensile strength of 28 days. It was found from the experimental study that concrete composites with superior properties can be produced using Silica Fume and combination of Hypo Sludge.

Keywords- Cement; Silica Fume; Hypo Sludge; Slump Test; Compressive Test; Split Tensile test.
