Abstract

The basis of this concrete is a high content of ultra fines which consists of one or more varieties of mineral and chemical admixtures. An attempt has been made in the investigation reported in this paper to study hardened properties Self Compacting Concrete (M50) .Cubes were cast and tested in compression, and studied their mechanical properties. Compressive Strength is evaluated by replacing Welan Gum Content with Cement by 0.2% to 1% Replacement. By Addition of Welan Gum up to Certain Percentages Gives better Results than normal Concrete under Same Environment And Curing Condition.
