The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of temperature curing and ambient curing on mechanical properties of Self Compacting Geopolymer Concrete SCGC blended using Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag GGBFS and Rice Husk Ash RHA The research also studied the effect of percentage 0 5 15 and 25% replacement of RHA on the
Throughout history concrete has proven itself to be a most flexible and durable construction material used to resist Compression Today modern technology has led to high The concept of self compacting concrete was proposed in 1986 by Professor Hajime Okamura but the prototype was first developed in 1988 in Japan at the University of
Factors Affecting Performance of Self compacting concrete Using self compacting concrete must not be used indiscriminately These factors can affect the behavior and performance of self compacting concrete An increase in the working temperature highly decreases the flowability and fluidity of the SCC as it causes the mix to dry off quickly
Specification and Guidelines for Self compacting Concrete European Project Group 2002 ASTM C1611/C1611M 21 Standard Test Method for Slump Flow of Self Consolidating Concrete ASTM international
The phenomenon of SCC is believed to be the most significant contribution in the history of concrete technology SCC was acquainted in the construction industry by Japanese researchers in late 1980s [] SCC is highly workable concrete with ability to flow or move through the restricted sections under its own weight maintaining stability [2 3 4 5]

Self compacting concrete with recycled coarse aggregates from concrete construction and demolition waste Current state of the art and perspectives Although history of SCC especially with RCA is relatively short many research and studies have appeared to prove its usefulness in academic community and industry applications However
Factors Affecting Performance of Self compacting concrete Using self compacting concrete must not be used indiscriminately These factors can affect the behavior and performance of self compacting concrete An increase in the working temperature highly decreases the flowability and fluidity of the SCC as it causes the mix to dry off quickly
Self compacting concrete SCC was developed in 1988 and introduced by Professor H Okamura to achieve durability of structures with low skilled laborers The three properties of SCC that differentiates it from traditional concrete are passing ability filling ability and segregation resistance The present study highlights the developments
5 Self compacting concrete is a type of non segregating concrete that can settle into formwork and envelop heavily reinforced narrow and deep portions with its weight Unlike typical concrete which employs mechanical equipment such as immersion vibrators self compacting concrete does not require external force or vibration to compact When it
History of SCC The concept of self compacting concrete originated in the 1970s when researches were carried on underwater [1 11] The first model of SCC mix design was developed by Okamura and Ozawa et al in 1989 as mentioned in Gaimster and Dixon [] The mix design of SCC was simultaneously studied in Europe Japan and North America at the same time
self compacting concrete has been introduced It all started around 1988 at Tokyo University when Okamura et al 1998 established the basic description of SCC The history of self compacting concrete SCC dates back to late 1980s SCC
Self compacting concretes SCCs highly fluid concretes placed without vibration were introduced into French construction works towards the end of the 1990s
SELF CONSOLIDATING CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION Construction is where SCC really shines What could be better than a mix that consolidates itself eliminating all vibration lift lines and bugholes For flatwork SCC mixes can be described as self leveling while formed concrete can be self placing Here are a few tips on construction with SCC
Self Compacting Concrete SCC is a material which under its own self weight flows to form and fill any shape attains full compaction without external energy input to create a dense homogenous mass based on Holton 2003; The Concrete Society and BRE 2005; Damtoft et al 2008 It is in respect to the history of concrete a relatively new development with its first UK
Self compacting concrete was first developed in 1988 in order to achieve durable concrete structures Since then various investigations have been carried out and the concrete has been used in practical structures mainly by large construction companies Investigations for establishing a rational mix design method and self compactability
Self compacting concrete or self consolidated concrete is a highly flowable non segregating concrete which spreads into congested reinforcement area and fills the formwork without the use of any vibrators Self compacting concrete allows denser reinforcement optimized concrete section and shapes and greater degree of freedom It has the advantages of
State of the art technology in the applications of self compacting concrete SCC in Japan for the last ten years are described SCC is defined in terms of the common scale for the workability of
In this research work the mechanical properties of high strength self compacting concrete HSSCC were studied Three mixes were selected having compressive strengths of more than 70 80 and 90 MPa respectively For these three mixes the stress strain characteristics were studied by casting cylinders It was observed during the testing that the binder content and
Self compacting concrete SCC can be defined as a fresh concrete which possesses superior flowability under maintained stability no segregation thus allowing self compaction that is material consolidation without addition of energy It was first developed in Japan in 1988 in order to achieve durable concrete structures by improving quality in the
Self Compacting concrete is a type of concrete that is more flowable than the normal concrete and compacted by itself Not like normal concrete vibration is not required to compact it It flows through the connection areas with reinforcements It was developed long ago and different form of concrete was produced throughout history
Self compacting concrete SCC can be defined as a fresh concrete which possesses superior flowability under maintained stability no segregation thus allowing self compaction that is material consolidation without addition of energy It was first developed in Japan in 1988 in order to achieve durable concrete structures by improving quality in the construction process This
Moreover the impact of CBA on the self compacting concrete s fresh and mechanical properties is discussed Results indicated that using up to 10% CBA in SCC as sand replacement resulted in improved fresh and hardened properties Over the past two decades concrete has been frequently employed in the construction sector because of its
