An investigation into the potential use of partial replacement of mineral admixture in high performance concrete has carried out. A suitable mix design of high performance concrete has been developed using combination of ACI method and BIS method. The engineering properties of both fresh and hardened concrete are obtained by conducting test on slump, compaction factor and compressive strength, flexural strength, split tensile strength, modulus of elasticity. High performance concrete was proposed and widely studied at last centuries. In this project Partial replacement of rice husk ash and metakaolin has been replaced for its varying equal and unequal replacements of 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%, 12.5% for high strength, durability , workability and also as eco-friendly by less emission of Co 2. It has been resulted that strength development of concrete blended with Rice husk ash and metakaolin is enhanced with unequal replacement. It was found that in 2.5% replacement of metakaolin and 5% of rice husk ash appears to be the optimum replacement where exhibits enhanced compressive strength. This project report concludes with a discussion of major areas of research need to develop optimum curing for the new class of concrete.

time taking degradable fibre obtainable at very low cost and also carries the permissible tensile load. The scope of the
work is to examine the performance of hair fibre reinforced concrete beams under monotonic loading. The investigation
also validates the strength and performance of the hair fibre reinforced concrete beams is consistent with conventional
beams and steel fibre reinforced concrete beams. This work aims at the confident use of hair fibres easily and practically
in the construction industry, to be evidence for enhanced properties of concrete. The one such evidence is being discussed
in the paper by taking human hair fibres cleaned with acetone. The human hair fibres of all the sizes are added 3% by
weight of cement in concrete as strengthening material. The properties akin to compressive strength, split tensile strength,
flexural strength, energy absorption capacity, ductility factor and stiffness of the beams are assessed and hair fibre
reinforced concrete is found to be on the upbeat side. In comparison to conventional concrete and conventional beam,
micro crack formations are reduced by hair fibres in concrete, and cost-effective to steel fibre reinforced concrete.
