Abstract

Generally concrete needs 7 to 14 days to reach minimum adequate compressive strength. Sometimes it is needed to get high early compressive strength of concrete for some reason. This research conduct an experimental program to make high early strength of self compacting concrete which is using local quartz powder and silica fume. Twenty one cylinder specimens were made and tested to get the compressive strength at age of 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, and 28 days. While the modulus elasticity of concrete were tested only at the age of 28 days. The cylinder specimen was using standard size of (150 × 300) mm. The experimental program shows that the average compressive strength of concrete in 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, and 28 days were 10.00 MPa, 27.16 MPa, 36.41 MPa, 40.93 MPa, 50.36 MPa, and 48.66 MPa, respectively. While the average modulus elasticity of the concrete at the age of 28 days was 18,703.45 MPa
