    These are made by eliminating large aggregate completely, carefully controlling the size of the fine aggregates to ensure the best possible packing, and incorporating steel fibers (sometimes produced by grinding steel wool) into the matrix. Reactive powder concretes may also make use of silica fume as a fine aggregate. Commercial reactive ...
