This document reviews the use of nanosilica and silica fume to strengthen concrete proportions. It discusses how partial replacement of cement with nanosilica and silica fume can increase the compressive strength and reduce permeability of concrete. The document summarizes several studies that found maximum strength is achieved when nanosilica content is 1-3% and silica fume content is 15-30% of cement replacement. It concludes that nanosilica combined with cement provides considerable improvements to concrete properties but the influence of silica fume decreases at replacement levels over 30% of cement.
