LITERATURE REVIEW ON SELF-COMPACTING CONCRETE

Payal Painuly,Itika Uniyal


Making concrete structure without compaction has been done in the past. Like placement of concrete underwater by the use of termie without compaction. Inaccessible areas were concreted using such techniques. The production of such mixes often used expensive admixtures and very large quantity of cement. But such concrete was generally of lower strength and difficult to obtain. This lead to the development of Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) The workability properties of SCC such as filling ability, passing ability and segregation resistance are evaluated using workability tests such as slump flow, V-funnel and L-Box tests.
