Experimental Study on Self Compacting Concrete with Replacement Materials
Author(s): DVSP Rajesh, P Abhishek, N Sravan ,P Lohith

The Self Compacting Concrete is a concrete mix which has a low yield stress, high deformability, good segregation resistance and moderate viscosity. SCC is relatively high cost due to the high cost of the materials used in it which continues to hinder its widespread over various segments of the construction industry. To avoid this limitation this project is going to be an attempt. In this project, we are replacing the cement by GGBS, sand by granite powder in varying proportions and specimens are casted accordingly. Each specimen is going to be tested with Tensile, Bending and Compression Tests. By the end of this project we can say that the overall cost of SCC can be reduced with no decrease in the strength or even slightly increase in strength.
