The Silica Fume Association (SFA) is a non-profit organization established in 1998 to promote the usage of silica fume in concrete. Silica fume, a highly-reactive pozzolan derived from silicon and ferro-silicon metal production, is a crucial component in high-performance concrete, significantly enhancing the durability of structures.
The SFA provides practical information and resources for individuals involved in producing, placing, specifying, and designing with silica-fume concrete. Their publications include articles from industry publications, relevant ACI Committee documents, and ASTM's specification for silica fume, while their videos offer insights into the placement, finishing, and curing of silica-fume concrete. Additionally, the SFA maintains a list of companies that utilize silica fume in their production processes.
