4. Introduction
M- 120 was Used so far in India.
M-200 was Used in Japan.
When Height of structure increases “Modulus of Elasticity” matters.
In “Burj Khalifa” sway was 900mm from centre at Peak.
Coefficient of thermal expansion is less in Lime aggregate and more in
normal aggregate.
Reynolds Number – Comes in Concrete Technology.
Plastic Mix to Fluid Mix.
Apart from Sp.gravity of materials - particle size matters in Concrete
5. 20mm – 90 microns – 45 microns.
(Cement) (Fly ash)
Revometers are using for the same.
Pumping of Concrete : 200m – 300m – 623m (Burj Khalifa) with
400BHP Pump
Dynamic Load will push Concrete. If you reduce the friction in a pipe line,
can pump to more heights.
Horizontal Pumping was done up to 1.5 Km.
Revology of Mix.
World started thinking concrete as “Chemical”
Introduction
6. SDC
Smart Dynamic Concrete (SDC) is an
innovative concrete that does not
require vibration for placing and compaction.
It is able to flow under its own weight, completely filling formwork and
achieving full compaction, even in the presence of congested
reinforcement.
The hardened concrete is dense, homogeneous and has the same
engineering properties and durability as traditional vibrated concrete.
7. SDC
Smart Dynamic Concrete offers a rapid rate of concrete placement,
with faster construction times and ease of flow around congested
reinforcement.
The fluidity and segregation resistance of SDC ensures a high level of
homogeneity, minimal concrete voids and uniform concrete strength,
providing the potential for a superior level of finish and durability to the
structure.
SDC is often produced with low water-cement ratio providing the potential
for high early strength, earlier demoulding and faster use of elements and
structures.

16. 2. Smart Dynamic Concrete
The Everyday Concrete
The new state of the art technology allows to produce a concrete that is
Without aid of Vibration
Can be used in grades 20-40 Mpa
with optimum cementious content
resulting in overall savings in construction –save time and money
This concrete adds economical, ecological and ergonomicalvalues to
concrete
17. 2. Smart Dynamic Concrete
The two extremes…
Traditional Vibrated Concrete Smart Dynamic Concrete
High stability (+)
Difficult to place (-)
Dependence on skill of manpower for
consolidation (-)
Highly flowable (+)
Easy to place (+)
Optimum Fine (+)
Overall Cost reduction (-)

20. 3. SDC Specification in India
SDC is low fines Self Compacting concrete
SCC for M20 –M40 branded as SDC
Space between reinforcement should be greater than 100 mm
Less than 100 mm –classical SCC is recommended
Testing criteria that should be fulfilled for SDC as per EFNARC at the time of
pour
Filling ability –Slump Flow SF1 Value
Viscosity –T500 Value & VF2
Segregation Resistance –V Funnel @ 5 minutes
Passing Ability –Not required to test for Space between reinforcement > 100 mm
(Source: According to EFNARC guidelines)
No vibration to allowed

25. If Grade of Concrete Increases :
More space – Lesser Structure Size
Feasibility to plan more heights
More Earthquake Resistance.
Durability of Concrete :
Carbonisation of concrete – CO2 enters in to concrete and
dissolves with cement becomes “carbonic acid”.
Micro Silica reduces porosity of concrete – 5 to 6% increase in
concrete does not effect strength.
5. Value Proposition
26. More fillers of filling voids of cement reduces porosity of concrete.
We Can replace Cement with Flyash by 50 to 55%.
GGBFS – Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag can use up to 50
to 70%.
RCPT – Rapid Chloride Penetration Test measures in Culhoms.
Keep in mind durability than strength – achieve raft of M-30
strength of 30 N/mm2 in 60 days rather than 28 days.
RCPT – Rapid Chloride Penetration Test measures in Culhoms.
Air content will be one of the durability check for green concrete.
5. Value Proposition

Where we are ????
Concrete is no more semi solid mix– its time to think it as Chemical.
Are we ready ????
We are using modular shuttering but as we are imagining 550 -
600mm Slump ???
Is Recent Nepal natural calamity teaches us - In Future Earthquake
resistance structures required or not ???
We need to start thinking !!!!
