Highlights Influence of fly ash and GW, separately and jointly, on the fresh and hardened properties of SCC were examined. Incorporation of fly ash in granite based SCC mixes improved the fresh characteristics. Granite based SCC mixes prepared with fly ash showed higher UPV and superior resistance to water absorption. Granite based SCC mixes prepared with fly ash exhibited the dense microstructure.
Abstract This research intends to use granite waste (GW) and fly ash as alternatives for fine aggregate and cement, respectively, for the sustainable production of self-compacting concrete (SCC). The fresh properties were evaluated using slump flow, T500 flow, V-funnel, J-ring, and L-box tests, while the hardened properties were evaluated in terms of using compressive strength, flexural strength, water absorption, and ultrasonic pulse velocity tests. The results of the fresh properties showed that they were adversely affected by the incorporation of GW. However, the incorporation of fly ash improved the fresh properties and mitigated to some extent the negative effect of GW on the fresh properties. The incorporation of GW in SCC mixes augmented the hardened properties. The incorporation of fly ash further enhanced the hardened properties (except strength properties). The findings of this study revealed that the combined use of GW and fly ash in SCC has the potential to considerably enhance the fresh and hardened properties (without adversely affecting the strength characteristics).
