Abstract
This study aims to develop models to correlate the different hardened properties of ultra-fine ground granulated blast-furnace slag (UFGGBFS) admixed SCC mixtures. Seven self-compacting concrete mixtures (SCC-A to SCC-G) were produced with a high powder content of 587 ± 2 kg/m3. The 450 kg/m3 (76 %) of powder was derived from the binders, and the remaining 137 ± 2 kg/m3 (24 %) was obtained from the powder particles (<125 µm) existing in the crushed stone sand. UFGGBFS was utilized as a supplementary binder. Properties of these SCC mixtures were evaluated in fresh as well as in the hardened state. The homogeneity, surface hardness, chloride permeability, electrical resistivity, and absorption of hardened SCC were detected with ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV), rebound hammer, rapid chloride permeability, Wenner’s four-probe electrical resistivity, and water absorption test methods, respectively. All the seven SCC mixtures demonstrated a nonsegregating flowability and excellent passability without stacking and blocking. At 28, the mix SCC-B recorded a maximum strength of 54 MPa and 4.41 MPa under cube compression and splitting tensile tests, respectively. Moreover, the mix SCC-G demonstrated a 30-MPa compressive strength with a significant cement range of 150 kg/m3. Correlations between the various properties of SCC was also arrived using the experimental results, and it was compared with the existing models.
