Abstract:

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) represents one of the most outstanding developments in concrete technology since 1980s. At first developed in Japan in the late 1980s, SCC meanwhile is spread all over the world with a steadily increasing and varied number of applications. Due to its specific enhanced properties, SCC may contribute to a significant development of the quality of concrete structures and open up new fields for the application of concrete. Self-Compacting Concrete gets compacted and dense due to its self-weight. An experimental research has been carried out to determine different characters like strength and workability of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC). Tests involving various fibre proportions for a particular mix of SCC were carried out. Test methods used to study the properties of fresh concrete were slump test, L-Box, U-Tube and V-Funnel. The properties like flexure, compressive and tensile strength of SCC were also investigated. Test Results shows that the workability characteristics of SCC are within the limiting constraints of SCC. The variation of different parameters of hardened concrete (M30 & M40) with respect to various percentage of steel fibre contents were analysed.
