Effects of Aggregate Grading and Admixture/Filler on Self-Consolidating Concrete
نویسندگان
چکیده
Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) is becoming a popular choice in concrete industry due to ease of placement in congested reinforcements, reduced labor and equipment, nonsegregating character, and smooth surface. Due to its sensitivity to aggregate grading, proportions, admixtures, and filler contents and being a relatively new material, more information are required on the effects of aggregate grading, mineral admixture types, and fillers on fresh and strength proper-

Stability of Self-Consolidating Concrete Containing Different Viscosity Modifiers
The main objective of this paper is to assess the effect of different viscosity-enhancing admixture (VEA) types and concentrations on deformability and stability of self-consolidating concrete (SCC). Two polysaccharide-based VEAs, one cellulose-based VEA, and a modified-startch VEA are used in this investigation. Regardless of polymer type, results showed that the incorporation of VEA leads to ...

Nowadays, waste production is increased due to the growth of technology and excessive use of natural resources as well as production of new chemicals, among which the hazardous wastes are no exception of that stabilization and solidification method is one of the hazardous waste management methods through which the waste materials are stabilized and confined. High flexibility for various polluta...
متن کاملRheological properties of self-consolidating concrete made by crushed waste tile aggregates
In recent decades, the use of self-consolidating concrete has become widespread. Hence, recognizing the various properties of self-consolidating concrete are essential. In this study, several mixture designs have been tested and final mixture design of crushed tile aggregates which were replaced by 0%, 25 %, 50%, and 100% volume percentage of natural aggregates were conducted. To evaluate fresh...
متن کاملDevelopment of Self-Consolidating Concrete for Bridge Girders and Evaluation of Its Fresh Properties
Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) has been developed for use in precast prestressed concrete bridge girders in the state of Minnesota. Locally available materials were used with a number of cementitious and filler materials, including ASTM Type III cement, Class C fly ash, and blast furnace slag. SCC was successfully proportioned with both natural river gravels and crushed stone as coarse aggre...
