This paper studies the effects of high-volume composite mineral admixture made of limestone powder and low-quality fly ash on the properties of concrete. Through experiments, this paper makes clear the workability of fresh concrete and analyzes the law of strength development of concrete. The experimental results indicate that the concrete with high-volume limestone powder as composite mineral admixture has good fresh properties; due to low water consumption per unit volume, medium-and-high-strength concrete can be prepared. As new type concrete mineral admixture, the composite mineral admixture made of limestone powder and low-quality fly ash will play an active role in the sustainable development of concrete industry.

This paper studies the effects of high-volume composite mineral admixture made of limestone powder and low-quality fly ash on the properties of concrete,and studies the form of attack of cement-based material made of limestone powder at low water-binder ratio under low-temperature sulfate environment.Through experiments, this paper makes clear the workability of fresh concrete and analyzes the law of strength development of concrete. The experimental results indicate that the concrete with high-volume limestone powder as composite mineral admixture has good fresh properties; due to low water consumption per unit volume, medium-and-high-strength concrete can be prepared. As new type concrete mineral admixture, the composite mineral admixture made of limestone powder and low-quality fly ash will play an active role in the sustainable development of concrete industry. After the specimen with the water-binder ratio of less than 0.4 and the limestone powder volume of greater than 20% is soaked in 10% magnesium sulfate solution at low temperature at the age of 200d, gypsum attack-led destruction is caused to the concrete test cube, without thaumasite sulfate attack.

With the increasing demand for high strength concrete, more attention has been paid to the problem of high viscosity mixture in high strength concrete technology by academic and engineering circles. This project studied the effects of ultra-fine limestone powder on the workability and viscosity of fresh concrete using the ultra-fine limestone powder (LP) obtained by ultra-fine grinding of limestone powder, building sandstone processing waste, as fine mineral admixture of high strength concrete. The experimental results show that the viscosity of fresh high strength concrete with ultra-fine limestone powder decreases significantly. At the same time, the influence of ultra-fine limestone powder on the strength of the concrete at different ages is very little.

Influences of limestone powder on the hydration progress of cement and the properties of dam concrete were studied in this paper. The results show that, as mineral admixture, limestone powder accelerates the cement early hydration and takes part in this hydration which produces the calcium monocarboaluminate hydrate, but, limestone powder doesnt have the pozzolanic activity. Limestone powder has an adverse impact on the pore system of hardened pastes, especially these pores size range from 3 nm to 107 nm. Fortunately, the pore system will be optimized by using some fly ash instead of part of limestone powder. Limestone powder, no matter used alone or blended with fly ash or ground blast furnace slag to form a double-doped material, can be used as mineral admixture for the dam concrete including conventional and roller-compacted concrete. Compared with fly ash, it increases concrete water content and improves the 7 days strength, but almost has no function on the 90 days strength.

This paper presents a research to produce high strength concrete incorporated with fly ash as cement replacement up to 50% (high volume fly ash concrete) by using local material. The research is conducted by testing the strength development of high volume fly ash concrete at the age of 14 days, 28 days and 56 days. As a control mix, the compressive strength of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) concrete without fly ash is used. Both concrete mixtures use low w/c. consequently, they lead to the use of 1 % superplasticizer to reach sufficient workability in the process of casting. The specimens are concrete cubes with the dimension of 15 cm x15 cm x 15 cm. The totals of 24 cubes of HVFA concrete and OPC concrete are used as specimens of testing. The compressive strength design of concrete is 45 MPa and the slump design is ± 10 cm. The result shows that the compressive strengths of OPC concrete at the age of 14 days, 28 days, and 56 days are 38 MPa, 40 MPa, and 42 MPa. Whereas the compressive strength of HVFA concrete in the same age of immersing sequence are 29 MPa, 39 MPa, and 42 MPa. The result indicates that HVFA concrete can reach the similar compressive strength as that of normal concrete especially at the age of 56 days by deploying low water cement ratio.

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
