FUNDAMENTAL EXPERIMENTS ON COMPACTION DEGREE OF EXTREMELY STIFF CONSISTENCY CONCRETE INFLUENCED BY PLACING AND COMPACTING METHODS

Self-compacting Concrete (scc)

on the comparison of keyword and semantic-context methods of learning new vocabulary meaning

the rationale behind the present study is that particular learning strategies produce more effective results when applied together. the present study tried to investigate the efficiency of the semantic-context strategy alone with a technique called, keyword method. to clarify the point, the current study seeked to find answer to the following question: are the keyword and semantic-context metho...

Effect of Mineral Admixture on Properties of Self Compacting Concrete

In this study, the benefits of limestone powder (LP) and marble powder (MP) as partial replacement of Portland cement are established. Furthermore, LP and MP are used directly without attempting any additional processing in the production of selfcompacting concrete (SCC). The water to binder ratio is maintained at 0.33 for all mixtures. The examined properties include workability, compressive s...

Properties of Self-compacting Concrete – an Overview

Self-compacting concrete can be defined as the concrete which requires no vibrations and can flow around obstructions, encloses the reinforcement and fills up the formwork completely under its self weight. Over the last ten years, significant amount of work has been carried out on self-compacting concrete all over the world. In countries like Japan, Sweden, Thailand, UK etc., the knowledge of S...
