The term high efficiency concrete is similar to high performance (HPC) is vividly used in the concrete industry since it has definite rheological properties in comparison with traditional concrete. Current research specifies the outcome of silica fume (SF) inclusion to M60 grade concrete by cumulative percentage replacements of SF with respect to cement, from 0-15 varying 5 and steel fiber of 1 percent is added by weight of cementitious binder. A super plasticizer of 1% is added to enhance workability of concrete. Water-binder ratio (w/b) is maintained at a ratio of 0.33. Mechanical properties of HPC are studied and results were tabulated.
