An Experimental Investigation on Strength Properties of Self Compaction Concrete with Partial Replacement of Cement with Bagasse Ash and Glass Powder as Fine Aggregate

Abstract

Self-compacting concrete (SCC), a recent innovation in concrete technology, has numerous advantages over conventional concrete. Self-compacting concrete, as the name indicates, is a type of concrete that does not require external or internal compaction, because it becomes leveled and consolidated under its self weight. SCC can spread and fill all corners of the form work, purely by means of its self- weight, thus eliminating the need of vibration or any type of consolidating effort. In this present investigation the workability and strength properties of self compacting concrete with bagasse ash and glasspowder in different properties of 5%, 10%, 15 %, 20%. The workability parameters of M30 grade concrete using slump cone test and and compaction parameters of M30 grade of self compacting concrete using compressive strength test flexural strength test and split tensile strength for strength parameters, each grade of concrete for each proportion, cubes , beams and cylinders are to be cast for 7 days, 14 days and 28 days.
