Fresh and Hardened Properties of Pozzolanic Binary Blend Self-compacting Concrete
Due to its revolutionary design, self-compacting concrete (SCC) had a significant influence on the concrete building industry. The method of achieving SCC either contributes to greater shrinkage or alter the concrete's mechanical properties. As a result, blended pozzolanic materials are needed for making SCC in order to improve its properties. This study reports on experimental work conducted to study the influence of using rice husk ash (RHA) and metakaolin (MK) as partial replacement materials for SCC. Tests are conducted on fresh and hardened binary blend SCC. With the addition of powder, the induced SCC’s flow and segregation resistance improved at a fresh stage. After seven days of curing, it is noticed that adding up to 20% blends improved the strength of SCC. If SCC is rendered with a mixture of RHA and MK, 20% cement replacement is recommended as the ideal standard.
