Abstract:

Basically, the term self-compacting was achieved by the use of admixtures in concrete. Admixtures introduced for SCC is different from other admixtures. Many manufactures produces varieties of SCC admixtures. In this project, Structuro 203 (Manufactured by Foscroc chemicals, India) was used as a superplasticiser. The main scope behind this study was to find out the behaviour of partial replacement of rice husk 10%, 20% & 30% by fine aggregate under the various SCC test (Slump flow test, L box test and V-funnel test) and hardened concrete test (Compression test and split tensile strength) using structuro 203 superplasticiser only. For all SCC test (Slump flow test, L box test and V-funnel test), 0% rice husk proportions gives better results when compared to other proportions of rice husk (10% and 20% and 30%). Similarly for Hardened concrete test on SCC after 28 days of curing, 0% rice husk proportions gives better strength when compared to other proportions of rice husk (10% and 20% and 30%). The dosage of structure 203 adopted was 4mL per kg of cement. This dosage was found on trial and error method in fresh concrete test of SCC.
