Abstract

Concrete with admixture mixtures is one of the latest innovations that is trending in both practical applications and research. The use of admixture in concrete serves to modify its properties, allowing for unique qualities and enhanced performance. Many researchers have implemented admixture in concrete mixtures to improve the effectiveness and durability of construction materials in infrastructure projects. A common issue with concrete is achieving density, as it often retains porosity, leading to a decrease in the quality compared to the original design specifications. This is particularly relevant in soil work, such as deep foundation projects. Therefore, researchers conducted an analysis of concrete with varying admixture percentages: 0%, 0.8%, 0.9%, 1.0%, 1.1%, 1.2%, 1.3%, 1.4%, and 1.5%. The aim was to evaluate the compressive strength and modulus of elasticity. A total of 32 test specimens were used, with four tests conducted for each admixture percentage, along with four tests for normal concrete as a reference. The results indicated that the addition of admixture improved the compressive strength and modulus of elasticity at percentages of 0.8%, 0.9%, 1.0%, 1.1%, 1.2% and 1.3%. However, there was a decrease in performance when the admixture content reached 1.4% and 1.5%.
