چکیده مقاله:

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 reduced passing ability represented by higher difference between the slump flow and J-Ring tests. The rheological properties followed an enhancing trend with VEA additions, given the higher degree of association and entanglement of polymer chains that increase resistance to flow. For given VEA dosage of 0.035%, mixtures made with cellulose VEA showed the highest stability levels including deformability and resistance to bleeding and surface settlement. Series of predictive charts are established to predict the changes in SCC stability as a function of rheological properties.

Autogenous Shrinkage of Prestressed Self-Consolidating Concrete

Shrinkage can be critical factor for the design of structural members due to the length changes by the timedependent deformation. Given the high fluidity and different mixture proportions of SCC, the shrinkage of such concrete can differ from those of conventional concrete or HPC of normal consistency. Proper estimate of autogenous shrinkage of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) can provide engi...

Correlations Among Various Self-Consolidating Concrete Workability Responses

Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) mixtures designated for precast, prestressed applications should be highly workable to flow easily through restricted spacing and completely encapsulate reinforcements without any mechanical vibration. Key workability characteristics of SCC can be described in terms of filling ability, passing ability, and resistance to segregation. These properties are typical...
