• Abstract:
  Concrete is one of the most produced and utilized materials in the world. Due to ; the labor intensive and time consuming nature of concrete construction, new and ; innovative concrete mixes are being explored. Self-consolidating concrete (SCC) is one ; such method of improving the overall cost and time efficiency of concrete production. ; SCC is a highly flowable form of concrete. This characteristic drastically reduces the ; amount of labor and time needed to place the concrete. The highly flowable nature also ; allows for much easier placement in applications of highly congested reinforcement. ; In order to test this new and innovative concrete mix, SCC was tested for both ; hardened material properties and durability in this investigation. The results indicated that ; SCC was superior to the baseline conventional concrete.
