1.  Self-compacting concrete is a fluid mixture suitable for placing in structures with
congested reinforcement without vibration.
 The SCC can be made by three methods namely powder type ,VMA type and
combined type. VMA type is used in our project and Cement is replaced by fly ash at 20%
by weight of cement.
The basic material properties are studied and tabulated
The workability tests on SCC such as Slump Flow, V-Funnel, L-box, U-box test are
conducted on trial mix to optimize the design mix by EFNARC codes
 The final Proportions of Ingredients and Admixtures have been finalized for M30 grade
conventional concrete and SCC.
The basic mechanical properties of conventional concrete and SCC are studied and
compared
The experimental investigation is mainly focused on bond strength and chloride
permeability of self-compacting concrete and the results are compared with CC.

2. ABOUT SCC:
 Self-compacting concrete does not need additional inner or outer vibration for
compaction.
 With regard to its composition, self-compacting concrete consists of the same
components as conventionally vibrated concrete, which are cement, aggregates
and water, with the addition of chemical and mineral admixtures in different
proportions
 Researchers have set some guidelines for mix proportioning of SCC,
i) reducing the volume ratio of aggregate to cementitious material
(ii) increasing the paste volume and water-cement ratio
(iii) carefully controlling the maximum coarse aggregate size and total volume
(iv) using various viscosity enhancing admixtures
(v) using super plasticizers

3. BOND STRENGTH OF CONCRETE:
 The bond strength between paste and steel reinforcement plays a major role in RCC
design. Bond strength arises primarily from the friction and adhesion between concrete
and steel.
 Bond strength is determined by conducting pull out test on cubes casted with steel rods
(diameter12mm to 20 mm)
A hydraulic machine (UTM) with maximum loading capacity of 30 ton was used to
perform current bond tests. The load was applied with a rate of 2 kN/sec and distributed on
the specimen surface by a square steel plate with size of 20 cm and a hole at the center
The cubes are casted with single reinforcing bar embedded vertically along a central axis
in each specimen
The cube shall be reinforced with a helix of 6 mm diameter plain mild steel bar conforming
to Grade-I of IS: 432 (Part 1)- 1966 at 25 mm pitch, such that the outer diameter of the
helix is equal to the size of the cube.

4. CHLORIDE PERMEABILITY OF CONCRETE:
 Capillary absorption, hydrostatic pressure, and diffusion are the means by
which chloride ions can penetrate concrete.
 The most familiar method is diffusion, the movement of chloride ions under a
concentration gradient.
 the chloride permeability is determined by rapid chloride permeability test.
The cylindrical concrete specimens of 50-mm thick and 100-mm diameter is
used for RCPT test
In the test set up A 60 V DC voltage for 6 hours is applied for the reservoirs
filled with 3.0 M NaCl solution and 0.3 M NaOH solution.
 All the results of total charge passed through standard specimens in 6
hours(the RCPT values), taken as a measure of the chloride permeability

5.  To study the basic material properties of ingredients
 To determine the design mix for SCC by conducting Slump
Cone Test, U box Test, L Box Test, and V Funnel Test on trial
mix.
 To study the mechanical properties of conventional concrete
and SCC.
 The main objective of this project is to study the bond stregth
and chloride permeability of conventional concrete and SCC

6. SCC has got many advantages over normal concrete.
 It can even be cheaper than normal concrete if fly ash is locally available
 Faster construction.
 Reduction in site man power.
 Better surface finishes
 Easier placing.
 Reduced noise levels in work site.
 Safer working environment.
 Economical construction.
 Improved filling capacity through highly congested reinforcement.
 Time of construction is minimized.

• SCC was developed to ensure adequate compaction through self-consolidation and
facilitate placement of concrete in structures with congested reinforcement and in
restricted areas.
• Marble Sludge Powder (MSP) can be used as filler and helps to reduce the total voids
content in concrete. Consequently, this contributes to improve the strength of concrete.
• Rapid Chloride Permeability test (RCPT) was conducted to measure the chloride
permeability of SCHPGC and the results were compared with the normal concrete made
up of river sand (NCRS) and the normal concrete made up of CRD (NCCRD).
• This paper discusses the effects of several factors, such as cement composition,
replacement of river sand with CRD and MSP on the RCPT results of hardened cement
concrete.

 Reported that Self-compacting concrete is a fluid mixture suitable for placing in
structures with congested reinforcement without vibration.
 Self-compacting concrete development must ensure a good balance between
deformability and stability.
 Also, compactibility is affected by the characteristics of materials and the mix
proportions; it becomes necessary to evolve a procedure for mix design of SCC
 The test results for acceptance characteristics of self-compacting concrete such as slump
flow; J-ring, V-funnel and L-Box are presented. Further, compressive strength at the ages
of 7, 28, and 90 days was also determined

Trevor J. Looney, Mahdi Arezoumandi*, Jeffery S. Volz, and John J. Myers (2007)
 An experimental investigation was conducted to compare the bond strength of reinforcing
steel in self-consolidating concrete (SCC) with conventional concrete (CC).
 This study investigated two different compressive strengths of SCC as well as CC. The
experimental program consisted of 24 pull-out specimens as well as 12 full-scale beams
(three for each concrete type and strength).
 The pull-out specimens were based on RILEM recommendations, and the beam specimens
were tested under a simply supported four-point loading condition. The CC test results
served as a control and were used to evaluate the results from the SCC pull-out and beam
specimen tests.
 Furthermore, a comparison was performed between results of this study and a bond
database of CC specimens. These comparisons indicate that SCC beams possess
comparable or slightly greater bond strength than CC beams.
