Effect of Fly Ash and Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) with Fibres on Fresh and Hardened Properties of High-Performance Self-Compacting Concrete | Chapter 6 | Engineering Research: Perspectives on Recent Advances Vol. 8

High Performance Self-Compacting Concrete (HPSCC) has been one of the very important developments in the building industry. The analysis of supplementary cementation materials, i.e. Fly ash and Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS), on Self-Compacting High-Performance Concrete was done in this study. The High Performance Self-Compacting Concrete makes it suitable for placing in difficult sections and conditions in members with congested reinforcement. The fresh and hardened properties of Special concrete - High Performance Self Compacting Concrete (HPSCC) studied in this work. The work studied has been focused on the Fly ash and GGBS effect with fibres on mix proportion and concrete in the hardened state. The Ultimate Strength - compression strength, Split Tensile Strength and Flexural Strength with replacement of Polypropylene fibres range of 0% -1.5% in 0.5 intervals and with various percentages of fly Ash and GGBS combination and behaviour of fibre under loading was found. The obtained values from this study are useful in determining design characteristics of HPSCC with fibre (polypropylene) sections. In this study, Fly Ash improved the fresh properties of concrete, while GGBS led to a reduction in workability.
