Abstract |
|
Self-Compacting concrete gets compacted due to its own weight without any external vibration. The trial mix whish satisfies the fresh concrete properties as per EFNARC guidelines and the one which gives maximum compressive strength is used in the work. The proposed experimental program is aimed to evaluate performance of SCC with varying percentage of polypropylene fibers. An attempt has been made to study the fresh and hardened properties of self-compacting concrete with 10% of class F flyash to the weight of cement and super plasticizer. The self-compacting concrete with 0.1% of polypropylene fiber satisfies EFNARC guidelines and showed better results when compared to other trial mixes. |
