Fresh and Hardened Properties of Self Compacting Concrete Incorporating Different Binder Materials
نویسندگان
چکیده
Self compacting concrete (SCC) is an innovative development of conventional concrete, which requires high binder content to increase its segregation resistance. This paper presents a comparative study on the use of different materials as binder content in SCC and their effects on the workability and strength properties are checked. Different combinations of Fly ash, Metakaolin and Saw dust ash are used with keeping the percentage of OPC constant at 70% of the total binder content. Fly ash content is varied from 0 to 30% and Metakaolin and Saw dust ash content from 0 to 15%. Water to binder ratio is maintained at 0.41%. Workability tests like V-funnel test, Slump flow test, L-box test and J-Ring test are executed and strength properties like compressive strength and splitting tensile strength are checked at different days of curing. Keywords— Fly Ash, Fresh and Hardened properties, Metakaolin, Saw Dust Ash, Self Compacting Concrete.

Investigating properties of fresh and hardened self-compacting concrete made of recycled aggregates
Self-compacting concrete is a new high performance concrete with high ductility and segregation resistance. In recent years, construction material manufacturers have focused their attention on lightweight concrete and have strived to use lightweight concrete, if possible, in load-bearing parts of buildings. Concrete with both self-compacting and lightweight properties is favourable in this cont...
متن کاملDurability Performance of Self Compacting Concrete Incorporating Alccofine and Fly Ash
The cost associated with the application of large volume of cement and synthetic admixtures was one of the major drawbacks of Self Compacting Concrete (SCC), which can be reduced by the use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCM). When the demand of cement reduces, the release of carbon dioxide (CO2) from cement industries will come down, which has a positive impact on global w...
