The cost associated with the application of large volume of cement and synthetic admixtures was one of the major drawbacks of Self Compacting Concrete (SCC), which can be reduced by the use of supplementary cementitious materials (SCM). When the demand of cement reduces, the release of carbon dioxide (CO2) from cement industries will come down, which has a positive impact on global w...

In the construction field, supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) have brought about a technological revolution in manufacturing of concrete as partial replacement or addition to conventional binder mass. Keeping this mind, paper aims summarise and discuss reported findings on mechanical durability properties alccofine-1203 based concretes. It is also aimed give better understanding behavi...

The findings of an experiment examining the efficacy different size coarse aggregates on fresh and strength properties Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) Alccofine based SCC are described in this article. For study, 5 aggregate sizes (10 - 4.75, 12.5 10, 16 12.5, 20 4.75 mm) were used with conventional to determine workability properties. water binder ratio 0.4 is maintained for all mixtures. Worka...
