ABSTRAKKajian karakteristik beton memadat sendiri yang menggunakan serat ijuk merupakan sebuah kajian yang dilakukan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penambahan serat ijuk terhadap karakteristik beton memadat sendiri (SCC). Beton memadat sendiri yang menggunakan serat ijuk (PFSCC) didesain memiliki campuran yang encer, bermutu tinggi (= 40 MPa) dan memiliki persentase kekuatan lentur yang lebih baik. PFSCC  didapatkan dari hasil pencampuran antara semen sebanyak 85%, fly ash 15%, superplastizicer 1,5%, serat ijuk 0%, 0,5%; 1%; 1,5%; 2% dan 3% dari berat binder (semen + fly ash), kadar air 190 kg/m3, agregat kasar 552,47 kg/m3 dan pasir 1.063 kg/m3. Semakin banyak persentase penambahan serat ijuk ke dalam campuran berdampak terhadap menurunnya workability beton segar. Penambahan serat ijuk yang paling baik adalah sebanyak 1%, penambahan tersebut dapat meningkatkan kekuatan tekan beton sebesar 13% dan lentur sebesar 1,8%.Kata kunci: beton memadat sendiri (SCC), beton berserat, beton memadat sendiri yang menggunakan serat ijuk (PFSCC), serat ijuk ABSTRACTThe study of characteristics self compacting concrete using palm fibers is a study conducted to determine the effect of adding palm fibers to characteristics of self compacting concrete (SCC). palm fibers self compacting concrete (PFSCC) is designed to have a dilute mixture, high strength (= 40 MPa), and have better precentage flexural strength. PFSCC was obtained from mixing of 85% cement, 15% fly ash, 1.5% superplastizicer, 0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2% and 3% palm fibers from the weight of binder  (cement + fly ash), water content 190 kg/m3, coarse aggregate 552.47 kg/m3 and sand 1,063 kg/m3. The more persentage palm fibers content added to the mixture makes workability of fresh concrete decreases. The best addition of palm fiber is 1%, this addition can increases the compressive strength 13% and flexural strength 1.8%.Keywords: self compacting concrete (SCC), fiber concrete, Palm fiber self compacting concrete (PFSCC), palm fiber

        Self-compacting concrete (SCC) refers to high strength concrete which will compact under its own weight and does not require external vibration. This paper gives a review on the journals to study the effect of metakaoiln in SCC. The metakaolin is used as a replacement of cement and it is obtained from natural Kaolin clay. Metakaolin helps to increase the compressive strength, spilt tensile strength, flexural strength and also the fresh properties. The use super plasticizer greatly improves pump-ability and the slump value. GLENIUM B233 is a new generation based super plasticizer which is based on modified polycarboxylic ether. The fresh properties such as pump ability and workability and the durability properties of super plasticizer in SCC with metakaolin are discussed. Keywords: Self-Compacting Concrete, Metakaolin, GLENIUM B233, Superplasticizer, Polycarboxylic Ether

The demand for high strength self compacting concrete is growing up today due to the increase of high rise structures across the globe because of its durability and ease of its place ability. It is very important to study its durability properties as it effects on economy, serviceability and maintenance. it is well known that the properties of concrete are affected by cementitious matrix, aggregate and the transition zone between the two phases. Reducing water powder ratio and addition of pozollona admixtures like Fly ash and Microsilica are often used to modify the micro structure of the matrix and to optimize the transition zone. An attempt was made to study the durability factors of High Strength Self Compacting Concrete Mixes. Durability properties have been established by exposing the concrete to Acidic and Suplhate medium.

Flowability is one of the prime characteristics of good concrete and plays a key role in Self Compacting Concrete (SCC). This study assesses the flowability of SCC with reduced cement content which is replaced by fly ash. Several mixes were prepared by using 5% to 30% fly ash. From the experimental work it was realized that by adjusting a suitable percentage of Super Plasticizer (SP), fly ash dosage can be increased with satisfactory fresh properties of concrete in accordance with the guidelines of EFNARC. At T50cm time the optimum amount of SP was 2%. It was noted that with increase in dosage of fly ash the slump flow increased but T50cm and V-funnel time were reduced. J-Ring height value varied from 9 to 10 for all mixes.

The self-compacted concrete (SCC) is a special type of concrete which settles down in the formwork and fills its every corner without any use of compaction or vibration. As SCC has higher flow-ability that causes brittle behaviour resulting in poor performance under tension and bending. The inclusion of randomly distributed short and discrete fibers is one of the most effective way to improve the tensile as well as flexural performance of SCC. In this regard this experimental study is undertaken to investigate the effect of nylon fibers (NF) on fresh and hardened properties of SCC. Two different lengths; 20 mm and 12 mm and five different volumetric percentages; 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5% of NF were used. The results revealed that addition of NF slightly affects the fresh properties of SCC. However, the extent of the effect is not of that order to be considered as major factor. The fresh properties for entire mixes lie within the required range according to EFNARC guidelines. The strength properties increases with addition of NF, the extent of increment is greater for the longer length of NF. The optimum volumetric fraction of NF for producing high strength SCC was found as 0.5%. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091734 Full Text: PDF
