In this experimental study, the effects of graphene oxide (GO) on portland cement paste are investigated. This project presents the results of an experimental investigation of graphene oxide on physical properties of concrete. This project aims to find out the optimum quantity of graphene oxide required to achieve maximum compressive, tensile and flexural strength of concrete. Graphene oxide was added to the concrete in five mix proportions. Graphene oxide content were varied by 0.03%, 0.05%, 0.08%, 0.10% and 0.13% of cement content. All the specimens were cured for the period of 7, 14 & 28 days before crushing. Tests were performed at the age of 7, 14 & 28 days. Test results indicated that the inclusion of graphene oxide in concrete enhanced the compressive, split tensile and flexural strength.
