-Abstract
The production of cement results in production of greenhouse gases in atmosphere, which will leads for global
warning. Hence, the researchers are currently focusing on use of waste materials which are having cementing
properties, which can be replaced in concrete as partially for cement, without comprising on its strength and durability,
which will result in decrease of cement production thus reduction in emission of greenhouse gases, in addition to
sustainable management of the waste. The properties of concrete mainly depend on the constituents used in concrete. The
waste product like fly ash, Ground Granulated Blast Furnace slag (GGBS), silica fume, metakaolin etc. which has
cementitious properties was used as partial replacement material for cement. This paper presents a study on mechanical
properties of concrete made with multi component cement i.e., cement is blended with optimum.% of fly ash, Ground
Granulated Blast Furnace slag (GGBS), silica fume & metakaolin. Study includes concepts of multi blended cement
exploits the Compressive strength of multi blend concrete.
