Abstract- Concrete is the most widely used construction material in the world due to its strength, durability, and versatility. In recent years, the demand for high strength concrete (HSC), high performance concrete (HPC), and ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) has increased significantly due to rapid urbanization, high-rise construction, and infrastructure development. This review paper presents a detailed study of 30 research papers related to mix design of high strength concrete, including conventional methods, advanced optimization techniques, and sustainable materials. The study focuses on the influence of water-cement ratio, aggregate properties, admixtures, and waste materials on concrete performance. It also highlights the use of recycled materials, fly ash, silica fume, and machine learning techniques in modern mix design approaches. Based on the review, key research gaps have been identified, particularly in the areas of standardization, sustainability, and field application. This paper provides useful insights for researchers and engineers to develop efficient, economical, and eco-friendly concrete mixes for modern construction.
