Abstract: Cement mortar mixture consists of different materials as the content. The materials which make up this mixture and the selection of this mixture have a vital proposition for the constructions in which this mixture is used. In this selection process, it is very complicated to decide which one material and how to use in the selection. Fuzzy decisionmaking theory is a very useful method that can be used in such decision-making problems. In this study, it was preferred to use the fuzzy TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) method to find the best cement mortar mixture. For this purpose, the optimum sorting was done for 40 alternatives using five criteria. These five criteria used are; The age of the samples (days), fly ash (FA), silica fume (SF), compressive strength (MPa) and ration of FA+SF mixtures. As a result, this study shows that the presented fuzzy TOPSIS model is able to effectively evaluate fuzziness in the multi-criteria decision process.
