Eco-Concrete for Hydraulic Structures with Addition of Colloidal Nano-Silica

In the construction of buildings and infrastructures, high resistance materials are used due to current design requirements, concrete being one of the main materials used in the execution of these projects whose cement content is limited to obtaining an economic concrete and of minimum retraction. This limitation requires the use of new additions such as Nano Silica (NS), which due to its nanometric structure is used as a partial replacement for cement, producing an increase in strength in concrete. The present investigation studies the partial replacement of the NS in the cement to determine its behavior in compressive strength, diametric compressive strength, water permeability coefficient. The results indicate that with an addition of 0.225% of NS the compressive strength and splitting tensile strength are increased and the water permeability coefficient decreases, all of them compared to a conventional concrete.
