The invention of Self Compacting Concrete has been tremendous and continuing growth in the working area over the past decade, culminating in its widespread usage in today’s reality. It outperforms regular cement in application and completion, cost, work reserve funds, and solidity. The addition of strands enhances its qualities, particularly those related to SCC’s post- break behaviour. The goal is to investigate the strength properties of SCC when mixed with various types of strands. Different strand types and filament speeds are among the variables studied. The essential characteristics of SCC, including strength, break energy, sturdiness, and sorptivity, must be controlled. The hydrated design and security development between fiber and blend will be examined using an electron microscope to examine the tiny building of several mixes. 12mm cut glass fiber, carbon fiber, and basalt fiber will be used in the request, as they have been for quite some time. 0.0 percent, 0.1 percent, 0.15 percent, 0.2 percent, 0.25 percent, and 0.3 percent of strands are removed based on volume. The request is broken down into two parts. The first half involves creating a planned blend for SCC of a detailed assessment, such as M30. The second half involves adding filaments such as glass, basalt, and carbon strands to the SCC blends and evaluating and verifying their plastic and hardened properties. The experiment demonstrates a modest improvement in SCC aspects by adding strands of various types and altering the volume. Carbon fiber is the most improved in the more challenging state, followed by Basalt fiber and Glass fiber, and the least improved in the plastic state due to its high-water absorption. Glass fiber fared better in the plastic state. Basalt fiber fared better in the present study regarding cost, appropriate amount, and overall viability.

The utilization of fine powders as fillers in self-compacting concrete (SCC) application is widespread, particularly in Europe. The incorporation of these fillers to attain the self-compatibility properties of SCC seems to be cheaper than the use of chemical admixtures. Among the wide range of potential fillers, dolomitic powders, particularly generated as by-products from quarry’s processing, are locally available and can be used to produce SCC. Few studies have shown that dolomitic powders can be incorporated in the SCC’s mix design, resulting in acceptable fresh and hardened properties of SCC. The particle size distribution and fineness of the dolomitic powder as well as the level of addition are the key factors affecting those properties. The influence of the chemical nature of the dolomitic powder on the properties of SCC, particularly the durability (e.g. alkali-carbonate reaction), is yet to be investigated. Furthermore, more efforts are still required to investigate the use of dolomitic by-products in the production of SCC.
