Abstract—High Performance Concrete (HPC) has become an object of intensive research due to its growing use in the construction practice. In the last decade the use of Supplementary Cementing Materials (SCM) has become an integral part of high strength and high performance concrete mix design. The addition of SCM to concrete reduces the heat of hydration and extends the service life in structures by improving both long-term durability and strength. Some of the commonly used SCM are Flyash, Silica fume, Blast furnace slag and Metakaoline. This paper presents results of the durability characteristic properties of M 80 and M 90 grade of high performance concrete with and without supplementary cementing materials. The durability was evaluated using Acid attack test, Alkaline attack test and Sulphate attack test.

Index Terms—High Performance Concrete (HPC), Durability, Acid attack test, Alkaline attack test, Sulphate Attack test.
