Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) is new type of concrete that posse's property of high flow ability, passing ability and stability. To achieve SCC, many factors must be investigated. Coarse aggregate is one of these factors that have a significant influence on SCC. This paper presents the coarse aggregate properties such as maximum size, texture and type of coarse aggregate that have a direct ...

CiteSeerX - Document Details (Isaac Councill, Lee Giles, Pradeep Teregowda): Abstract. Self-compacting repair mortars (SCRM) are preferred for the rehabil-itation and repair of reinforced concrete structures especially at narrow mould sys-tems. Self compactability and stability are susceptible to ternary effects of chemical and mineral admixture type and their content.

Abstract This work focuses on the exploitation of local industrial wastes and their use in the formulation of new concretes which can be used in local constructions. The valorised materials are limestone crushing sand (0/5mm) and limestone fillers (80μm). The two materials are extracted from local aggregate crushing wastes. Thus, and since the used gravels are also of limestone nature, the ...

Effects of aggregate properties on Concrete like Grading of aggregates depends on the proportions of coarse and fine aggregate. If grading of aggregate is varied, it also changes cement paste content (cost economy), workability of the mix, density and porosity. It is an important factor and has a maximum influence on workability.

The results indicated that the mechanical properties of concrete are largely affected from elevated temperatures and the type of coarse aggregate used. The compressive and split tensile strength, and modulus of elasticity decreased with increasing temperature, while the ultimate strain in compression increased.

Generally, aggregate properties affect not only the concrete mixture proportions but also the behavior of fresh and hardened concrete. Due to considerable overlap between the two, it is more appropriate to divide the study of aggregate properties into three categories that are based on microstructural and processing factors.

Uniaxial compressive strength, bulk density, porosity and water absorption as well as microstructure of the concrete were investigated using SEM. The compressive strength of the dolomitic limestone concrete (520.86 kg/cm 2) is much higher than the aggregate itself (424.02 kg/cm 2) due to the bonding strength of the aggregate cement interface.
