Abstract : The Durability of Concrete has been vital to all the manufacturer and researchers. The Concrete has been on top always in providing Strength and durability of structures. On other side, we have been facing many challenges like long term Poor Performance, less durable, poor performance against acid and sulphate attack etc. Many researchers are working to improve these drawbacks using nano particles. Nano technology is one of the emerging techniques to improve the mechanical properties of concrete as well as the performance of concrete. The modifications are required to sort out these problems in concrete mass. It has been seen that using nano particles material, the tensile strength, susceptibility to chemical attack, corrosion of reinforcement, low durability has been sorted out up to a good extent. In this study, I have tried to improve mechanical and chemical properties of concrete like Compressive strength, durability, resistive against corrosion, acid attack resistance, workability etc. using Nano Silica material. The target study is to get the best proportion of concrete ingredient added with nano silica and to get the best out come with that proportion in terms of better mechanical and Chemical Properties.

Keywords : Durability; Compressive Strength; Nano Silica, Split Tensile Strength; Nondestructive tests.
