• Abstract:
  This report summarizes the New Hampshire Department of Transportation’s (NHDOT) investigation of ; the performance of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) when used in drilled shaft applications. SCC and ; conventional concrete (CC) piles were evaluated side-by-side for infilling properties, air content, and ; segregation. The investigation was undertaken because the method of construction on this highway ; project exposed several feet of the shafts after they were poured affording a unique opportunity to ; observe the infilling properties of the two mixes. The NHDOT concluded that for the mixes used, there ; was no significant difference in performance.
