Silica fume is one of the pozzolanic materials that broadly used in creating the high performance concrete. However, improper amount in using silica fume has been reported that it still may induce some cracks, plastic shrinkage, shrinkage due to high water content, and alkali reaction problems due to high-alkali environment. This study tries to investigate the early age cracking due to the addition of silica fume and propose Hwang-Fuller’s Densified Mixture Design Algorithm (HFDMDA) method as the trouble-shooting strategy. Specimens with different water-to-binder ratio (W/B) and silica fume content were made in paste (W/B = 0.20, 0.23, 0.29, 0.35, 0.47, 0.59; SF content = 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%), mortar (W/B = 0.35, 0.47, 0.59; SF content = 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%), ACI concrete (W/B = 0.23, 0.35, 0.47; SF content = 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%), and HFDMDA concrete (W/B = 0.23, 0.35, 0.47; t = 5, 15, 25 μm). Adding silica fume to the system may increase the compressive strength, crack intensities, and electrical resistivity; but reduce the heat of hydration, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and rate of water absorption. HFDMDA method, which is proposed as the technique solving problem, shows to have better performance in reducing the crack intensities (until 40.5% in W/B = 0.23) and have the better durability than ACI method.
