SELF-COMPACTING CONCRETE Masahiro OUCHI 1 SUMMARY Self-compacting concrete was first developed 1988 in order to achieve durable concrete structures. Since then‚ various investigations have been carried out and the concrete has been used in practical structures in Japan‚ mainly by large construction companies. Investigations for establishing a rational mix-design method and self-compactability testing methods have been carried out to make the concrete the standard one. Keywords: self-compacting

ABSTRACT Concrete has been the most preferred construction material for over five decades. It is being increasing day to day all over the world due to its versatility‚ mould ability‚ high compressive strength and many more advantages. For several years beginning in 1983‚ the problem of the durability of the concrete structures was a major topic of interest in Japan. The creation of durable concrete structures requires adequate compaction by skilled workers. One solution for the achievement of durable

Strength Assessment of Self Curing Concrete Curing is the process of controlling the rate and extent of moisture loss from concrete to ensure an uninterrupted hydration of Portland cement after concrete has been placed and finished in its final position. Curing of concrete must begin as soon as possible after placement & finishing and must continue for a reasonable period of time for the concrete to achieve its desired strength and durability as per relevant standards. Various methods‚ materials

Concrete is a composite construction material composed primarily of aggregate‚ cement‚ and water. There are many formulations‚ which provide varied properties. The aggregate is generally a coarse gravel or crushed rocks such as limestone‚ or granite‚ along with a fine aggregate such as sand. The cement‚ commonly Portland cement‚ and other cementitious materials such as fly ash and slag cement‚ serve as a binder for the aggregate. Various chemical admixtures are also added to achieve varied properties
