High Performance Concrete

KAOROCK has been found to meet or exceed the benefits of silica fume. It significantly increases both flexural and compressive strength, while at the same time improves the durability of the finished structure.

ASTM has defined high performance concrete as meeting on the following criteria for strength development:

4-hr strength > 3,000 psi
24-hr strength > 5,000 psi
28-day strength > 10,000 psi or
Water to cementitious materials ratio < 0.35
HPC Applications that could use KAOROCK Metakaolin
Marine environments—bridges, dams and piers
Public roads—fast track paving
Concrete structures—parking areas, garages, buildings
Precast concrete applications—pipes, prestressed
