The study has conducted to determine the workability and compressive strength of the self –compacting concrete. The sand has replaced with quarry dust with the proportion of 10, 20, 30 and 40% and super plasticizer was added 0.9%. The experiments were carried out at the Infrastructure University Kuala Lumpur (IUKL) concrete laboratory. Slump flow, J- Ring tests were carried out to determine the workability of self-compacting concrete and compressive strength test was conducted on 7 days and 28th days of curing period. A finding of the study shows that workability and compressive strength has increased by addition of quarry dust. It is concluded that addition of quarry dust up to 30%  improve the workability of the self-compacting concrete and further addition of quarry dust decrease the workability. Additionally, compressive strength of the quarry dust modified self-compacting concrete shows the trend of higher compressive strength up to 30% addition of quarry dust with sand replacement and further addition decrease the compressive strength.

The mechanical strengths of self-compacting concrete (SCC) with different strengths and different fibers were investigated. By mechanics performance testing on concrete samples, it shows that the fiber can significantly reduce strength of the self-compacting concrete during curing period. The 28d tensile strength of self-compacting concrete can be improved when steel fiber, polypropylene fiber, or polyethylene fiber were used. Moreover, steel fiber can improve the 28d compressive strength; contrarily, polypropylene fiber and polyethylene fiber can reduce the 28d compressive strength.

Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) is one solution to get concrete construction which it has good resistance. Durability of concrete was obtained by the good concrete compaction to be done by a skilled workforce. However, one of the negligence that often occur in the field ie after casting they was ignoring curing of the hardening concrete. This study discusses the workability of fresh concrete and mechanical properties (compressive strength and splitting tensile strength) on SCC without curing. Testing of the concrete workability based on EFNARC standard. The mechanical properties test based on ASTM standards. The method Compressive strength test based on ASTM standards 39 / C 39M - 12a, whereas splitting tensile strength accordance standard ASTM C496 / C496M-11. The results of the study indicate that the SCC without curing effect on the reduction in compressive strength at ages 1, 3, 7, 28, and 90 days in a row at 4.11 MPa (16.1%); 4.90 MPa (13.9%); 6.64 MPa (13.1%); and 6, 72 MPa (12.75%). Splitting tensile strength decreased respectively by 0.1 MPa (3.25%); 0.26 MPa (7.99%); 0.4 MPa (9.52%); and 0.39 MPa (9.16%).

This paper explains the combined effect of granite cutting waste and recycled concrete on the workability and mechanical properties of self compacting concrete. Experimental plan is divided in such a way that granite cutting waste is replaced with fine aggregate at 0, 20,40,60,80 and 100% proportions. Recycled concrete is replaced with the coarse aggregate starting from 20 to 100%. Total 36 mixes were designed to check the fresh and hardened properties. Slump flow and T500, v-funnel and L-box test are conducted to know the flow ability and passing ability of concrete. To study the hardened properties compressive strength, flexural strength test values are to be collected.

An experimental investigation was made on flow properties and compressive strength of self-compacting concrete (SCC) with ultrafine natural steatite powder (UFNSP) as replacement to cement. The tests were conducted on specimens with 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25% of replacement of UFNSP to the weight of cement and compared to the control specimens. The flow properties of all specimens were tested and checked for their limit with the existing guidelines. The compressive strength test was done on all specimens for strength of 7 days, 14 days, 28 days, and 56 days. The hardened samples were tested for their microstructural behavior and the elements Mg, Ca, and Si were mapped. Through mapping, the formations of M-S-H along with C-S-H are observed. The results show that the addition of UFNSP influences the flow property, by reducing the flow, and increases the compressive strength till 20% replacement. Further the addition of UFNSP increases the denseness of microstructure of the specimens thus resulting in the strength increment.

Powder Content

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a special type of concrete able to flow and compact under its self-weight. The SCC requires high powder content (mainly of cement) up to 600kg/m3 to achieve its properties. This will be problematic if all cement content in the powder exceeded 400 kg/m3used in hot weather of Sudan. This paper investigates addition of Sudanese limestone powder (LSP) to reduce cement content. The LSP dosages between 20% and 28 % (by cement weight) are used in six mixes having maximum cement content 380kg/m3. Results show that five trial mixes achieved the self-compactibility tested by slump flow, sieve segregation, V-funnel and U-box tests. Compressive strength of these mixes show that the LSP increases strength with dosage. Therefore, further investigations of hardened concrete properties are recommended for the successful mixes to be applied in real projects in the Sudan. Also, it has been found that dry batching and forced-action pan mixers are the most suitable for producing SCC with high homogeneity compared to commercial tilted-drum mixers.

This study investigates the self-curing concrete using baby polymer diapers as substitute method of curing process in order to improve mechanical and physical properties of concrete. Three different proportion of baby polymer diapers which are 1%, 3% and 5% were mix with concrete. Slump, compressive strength and drying shrinkage test were performed in order to study the workability, strength and durability of the concrete. All concrete were tested for 1, 3, 7, 14, and 28 days for drying shrinkage test. Meanwhile, all concrete were test at 3, 7 and 28 days for compressive strength test. Compressive strength of concrete containing 5% baby polymer diapers show the highest strength at 28 days compared to others percentage. Thus, it indicates that application of baby polymer diaper as self-cure agent can improve the concrete performances.

In this research work, the effect of mound soil on concrete produced with river sand was investigated. A mixed proportion of 1.1.8:3.7 with water cement ratio of 0.47 were used. The percentage replacement of river sand with mound soil is 0%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40%. Concrete cubes of 150mm x 150mm x150mm of river sand/mound soil were cast and cured at 3, 7, 28, 60 and 90 days respectively. At the end of each hydration period, the three cubes for each hydration period were crushed and their average compressive strength recorded. A total of ninety (90) concrete cubes were cast. The result of the compressive strength test for 5- 40% replacement of river sand with mound soil ranges from 24.00 -42.58N/mm2 a against 23.29-36.08N/mm2 for the control test (0% replacement).The workability of concrete produced with 5- 40% replacement of river sand with mound soil ranges from 47- 62mm as against 70mm for the control test.
