Self Compacting Concrete under Local Conditions

Abstract: This paper presents the results of experimental investigations on mechanical properties of self compacting concrete made with local materials. The used materials were cement, aggregate and super plasticizer. Limestone powder, silica fume and blast furnace slag have been used as adjuvant in self compacting concrete (SCC). Self compacting concrete properties in fresh and hardened state are characterized and analyzed. The test results indicate the possibility to manufacture SCC with good rheological and mechanica… Show more

“…Due to this, Self-Compacting concrete therefore depends on the material characteristics, their mix proportions and the addition of superplasticizers and/or viscosity modifying agents. One of the most important material differences between Self-Compacting concrete and normal vibrated concrete is the incorporation of high amount of fines, low water binder ratio and superplasticizer usage to achieve its high deformability and stability [3]. It is important to note that the required high amount of fines (powder) has a direct influence on the cost.…”
