Strength and flexural behavior of steel fiber and silica fume incorporated self-compacting concrete
Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2021 Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) that flows by its own weights without compaction or vibration, thereby no external energy from mechanical equipment. In addition to this, cement replacement with silica fume and the introduction of steel fibers have allowed
