In modern years, effective utilization of high performance concrete in construction because of their increase in durability and mechanical properties. In particular high performance concrete is made by replacing/introducing mineral admixtures and chemical admixtures with cement or replacing/introducing the fibers into the concrete. The focus of this review is to illustrate the properties of the various materials used, mix proportion of materials to make high performance concrete and observation of high performance concrete. Moreover there are three main groups which are important in manufacture of high performance concrete they are increase of workability, increase of strength and increase of durability. Finally the studies on the high performance concrete have been reviewed.
