INTRODUCTION The reltionship between the modulus of elstiity of onrete nd its omponents hrteristis hs been of deep interest for ivil engineers nd reserhers for long time []. For norml strength onrete ( f 4MP), the modulus of the elstiity of onrete my be preisely expressed s funtion of the ompressive strength of onrete []. It is the wy tht most ntionl nd interntionl odes re used to express the modulus of elstiity of onrete; for instne, the merin Conrete Code (CI 8) expresses qs. () nd () [, 4], nd the Cndin Conrete Code (CS.) expresses q. () [] for the evlution of the modulus of elstiity of onrete. =, for. f 4 MP ()..4w f = 47 f (CI 8M9) () = 4 f (CS) () where f (MP) nd (MP) re 8dy ylindril ompressive strength nd modulus of elstiity of onrete, respetively; nd w (kg/m ) is the unit weight of onrete. However, the forementioned equtions re not pplible to high strength (HS) onrete, where mehnil properties of onrete intrinsilly depend on some other prmeters, i.e., the wtertoementitious mterils rtio, the sili fume perentge used, the type of ggregtes, et [6]. Nevertheless, still most existing expressions for the predition of the modulus of elstiity of HP/HS onrete re bsed on its ompressive strength; some of them re s follows with the sme prmeters s before [9]: Reeived by the editors pril, 4; finl revised form Mrh 4, Corresponding uthor

Sine the experimentl dt used for verifition were seleted from independent studies, it ould be onluded tht both proposed omprehensive nd simple models (qs. (4) nd ()) re relible for the predition of the modulus of elstiity of high strength onrete. 6. CONCLUSIONS. The mximum ompressive strength of HS onrete ws hieved by % substitution of sili fume for ement when W/C ws.4, nd by % substitution of sili fume for ement when W/C ws. or.4. The optimum sili fume perentge does not seem to be onstnt, nd inreses when the rtio of W/C dereses.. To hieve the mximum modulus of elstiity of HS onrete, the optimum sili fume perentge is not neessrily equl to tht for hieving the mximum ompressive strength.. The reltionship between the modulus of elstiity of HS onrete nd its ompressive strength n be expressed by qs. (8), (9), nd () for limestone, ndesite nd qurtzite orse ggregtes, respetively. 4. Regrding onrete s omposite mteril, omprehensive model s expressed in q. (4), or simple model s expressed in q. () n be used for the estimtion of the modulus of elstiity of HS onrete with eptble ury.
