AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF FRESH PROPERTIES ON HIGH PERFORMANCE SELF COMPACTING CONCRETE

The ever increasing demand and consumption of cement and in the backdrop of waste management, scientists and researchers all over the world are always in quest for developing alternate binders that are environment friendly and contribute towards sustainable management. The properties of fresh concrete cost reduced, time and substantial effective construction expertise in Special concrete of Self compacting concrete (SCC) with high performance properties. The present work is concentrated on two major aspects, Effect of fibers with Fly ash on Fresh concrete properties and Behavior of polypropylene fibers Specimens under Compressive loading. The first parts of the work has been focused on the effect of polypropylene fibers on Fresh and harden concrete of Ultimate Strength with replacement of varying Polypropylene fibers by 0% to 1.5% at the interval of 0.5 and next part of the work focusing the behavior of fiber under Compressive loading. The results obtained from this work is expected to be useful in determining behavior of SCC with polypropylene fiber Specimens. This will help the designing SCC specimens to resist various loading.
