The theoretical part describes the properties of fine-grained admixtures and the ways how these admixtures modify concrete properties. There are also described ways to assemble grain curves in the range 0-1000 m. The practical part describes the properties of all the concrete components used for the tests. From the admixtures and cement, the individual grain curves were compiled. Curves were assembled in the first stage manually by using MS Excel. Subsequently, a simple program was developed based on the knowledge of composing grain curves, which automatically compiles the grain curve according to the given limits. The maximum cement replacement was set at 25% by weight. The physical and mechanical properties of the graded curves thus established were first verified on mortar mixtures where the workability, bulk density and strength were verified at the age 7, 28 and 90 days. In addition, the porosity of cement cement with mercury porosimetry has been verified for selected recipes. The acquired knowledge was subsequently applied to the concrete in the laboratory. Here the maximum cement compensation was set at 30%. In particular, concrete consistency over time, air content in the concrete and compresive strength of concrete at the age 3, 7, 28 and 90 days were verified. Verification was also carried out in practice on the optimization of self-compacting concrete. Mechanical properties have been retained for optimized recipe but there were financial savings and CO2 emissions reductions compare with the original recipe.
