Self-Compacting Concrete
Abstract Self-compacting concrete is the highly flowable, non-segregating concrete that can spread into place, fill formwork, and encapsulate even the most congested reinforcement by means of its own weight, with little or no vibration. It delivers these attractive benefits while maintaining or enhancing all of customary mechanical and durability characteristics of concrete. Adjustments to traditional mix designs and the use of superplasticizers create this concrete that can meet flow performance requirements. The self-compacting concrete is ideal to be used for casting heavily reinforced sections or be placed where there can be no access to vibrators for compaction and in complex shapes of formwork which may otherwise be impossible to cast, giving a far superior surface to conventional concrete.
