Study on Normally Vibrated Concrete to Self -Compacting Concrete

Authors:Prashant Kumar, Rakesh Kumar, Y K Gupta

Abstract: This paper investigates the study of durability and workability appearances of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) with Viscosity Changing Admixture (VMA), and containing Class F fly ash. The experiments are carried out by assuming a water-powder ratio of 0.3, 0.4, 0.45, 0.5, and 0.6 .Workability of  fresh concrete is measured by using tests such as: slump flow, T50, V-funnel, L-Box and U-box tests. In comparison to normally vibrated concrete (NVC), Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) possesses higher qualities and improves good productivity and working conditions. This research is to compare the Compressive Strength of Self-Compacting Concrete (CBI Method) and Normal Concrete.
