This paper discusses an experimental investigationof the strength properties of concrete with TitaniumDioxide (TiO2). TiO2 consists of extremely fine particles that effectively occupy the voids present between coarse and fine aggregates. This approach can reduce voids in concrete while simultaneously increasing the compressive strength of the material. In this study, TiO2 is utilized as a partial replacement for cement, with varying percentages of 4%, 5%, and 6% by weight. The experiments were conducted by casting the concrete of M45 grade. The selection of these percentages is based on our findings, which indicate that 4%, 5%, and 6% TiO2 content are optimal for achieving the desired compressive strength in concrete. For the mix design of M45 concrete, established standards such as IS 10262:2009 and IS 456:2000 are employed. The experimental tests are conducted using a Universal Testing Machine (UTM) to evaluate the performance of concrete containing TiO2 in comparison to conventional concrete. The findings of this study emphasize the positive impact of TiO2 inclusion on the compressive strength of concrete, indicating that it can be used as an additive in concrete mixtures.
