Self-Compacting Concrete (scc)

Self-Compacting Concrete (scc)

Authors: Dr.P.Muthupriya, Dr.P.Magudeaswaran,
Format: Paperback | Genre : Computers & Internet | Other Book Detail

Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) is a relatively new concrete type therefore, limited experience is provided by its appropriate composition. Construction quality of normal concrete structures highly depends on the vibrating time during casting, and in a liquid vibration, this may lead to inferior quality of concrete. However, this drawback can be overcome if SCC is employed. SCC is a highly performance concrete that can flow into place under its own weight and achieve good consolidation without internal or external vibration and without exhibiting defects due to segregation and bleeding. A lack of conformation regarding in-place properties and structure performance of SCC is one of the main barriers to its recognition in the construction industry.
