#selfcompactingconcrete

"Self compacting concrete SCC is a very fluid concrete and a homogeneous mixture that solves most of the problems related to ordinary concrete. Self Compacting Concrete gets dense and compacted due to its own self weight. An experimental investigation has been carried out to determine different characters like filling ability, passing ability, segregation resistance workability and strength of Self Compacting Concrete SCC . And finally determining the chloride penetrability of SCC. Self Compacted Concrete is generally defined as the “Concrete, which does not need Compaction.” Due to these characteristics, SCC is ideally suited for concreting structures, which have heavily congested reinforcement or difficult access conditions. In this project, M40 grade concrete were made using European method. The compressive strength, split tension test obtained at the ages of 7, 14 and 28 days.
