	This paper presents results of tests on the effect of the addition of fly ashes (FA) in the amount of: 0, 20 and 30% by weight of cement on the size of microcracks in concrete composites. The analyses were carried out based on the results of the microstructural tests, by using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). During investigations the size of microcracks occurring in the Interfacial Transition Zone (ITZ) of coarse aggregate with cement matrix was evaluated. In the own testing, it was demonstrated that addition of FA modifies the microstructure of the ITZ. Composites with FA at early age are characterized by greater microcrack width in the ITZ in comparison to the unmodified concrete. In matured concretes the smallest microcracks occur in composite with the 20% FA additive. It can be concluded that the mature composites with 20% addition of FA are characterized by low permeability and therefore high durability.
