Elastic properties of self consolidating concrete

Construction and Building Materials, 2011
Abstract With the advancements in self consolidating concrete (SCC) technologies coupled with the demand for shorter construction schedules, there is a need to evaluate the applicability of predictive equations and non-destructive testing methods to assess SCC’s transient in situ mechanical properties.

Durability of Sustainable Self-Consolidating Concrete

Key Engineering Materials, 2018
Supplementary cementitious materials such as fly ash, silica fume and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) have been used widely to partially replace cement in producing self-consolidating concrete (SCC). The production of cement is associated with emission of significant amounts of CO2 and increases the human footprint on the environment.

Abrasion Resistance of Self-Consolidating Concrete

Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2014
AbstractThis research investigation is intended to compare the abrasion resistance of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) with that of vibratory-placed concrete (VPC) and to examine the effects of binder content and water-to-binder ratio (w/b) on its wear resistance.

Self-Consolidating Concrete in Fire

ACI Materials Journal, 2006
Many investigations on self-consolidating concrete (SCC) have been carried out in the last several years and the mechanical behavior of this type of concrete is well understood by now. The fire behavior of this specialized concrete, however, is not fully understood, and contradictory results on the fire behavior of SCC were presented in the literature.

Self-Consolidating Concrete (SCC)

2020
This chapter describes the special requirements for proportioning, mixing, and placing of self-consolidating concrete (SCC). These requirements are based on ACI 237R and experience from the actual case studies over the years. SCC, as the name suggests, is designed to be flowable so that it can be placed into the forms without the need of consolidation.

Performance Criteria for Self consolidating Concrete

HKIE Transactions, 2008
Self-consolidating concrete (SCC), also called self-compacting concrete, was first developed almost two decades ago. It does not require compaction to achieve good consolidation and is becoming more and more commonly used in many parts of the world. However, SCC is not the same as high-workability concrete; a SCC is a high-workability concrete, but a ...

Maturity of Prestressed Self-Consolidating Concrete

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013
The maturity method applies the fundamental concept that concrete strength develops with time as the cement hydrates and releases heat. The rate of strength development at early ages is related to the rate of hydration of cement. In this investigation, 27 Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) mixtures made with various mixture proportioning parameters ...

Rheological Model for Self-Consolidating Concrete

ACI Materials Journal, 2002
This work presents the development of a rheological model for self-consolidating concrete (SCC). The model is based on paste rheology criteria, which include minimum apparent viscosity, minimum flow, and optimum flow-viscosity ratio to achieve SCC with satisfactory segregation resistance and deformability.

Shear capacity of self-consolidating concrete beams

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Structures and Buildings, 2020
An improved analytical model to predict the ultimate shear capacity of a self-consolidating concrete (SCC) flexural member is presented. SCC behaves differently to normal concrete because of its unique composition and mix proportions, which alter the shear resisting mechanisms in the member.

Transport Properties of Self-Consolidating Concrete

ACI Materials Journal, 2009
This study reports the findings from an investigation carried out to study the effect of the mixture variations on the durability of medium- and high-strength self-consolidating concrete (SCC). The mixture variations studied include the type of mineral admixtures, such as limestone powder (LSP) and pulverized fuel ash (PFA), and viscosity-modifying ...
