Mix Design of Self-Compacting Concrete Containing High Volume Calcareous Fly Ash for Precast Elements
Journal Title: Mašinstvo - Year 2016, Vol 13, Issue 1
Abstract
In this paper, the possibility of proportioning self-compacting concrete with high volume calcareous fly ash (W) for precast elements has been investigated. So far, numerous mix design methods for self-compacting concrete have been developed, so as the most appropriate method in this investigation, the UCL method was chosen. In the first phase, the preliminary tests were conducted on the mortar mixtures using mini slump cone and mini V-funnel, and thereafter the optimal mixture composition was defined. In the second phase, self-compacting concrete mixture was prepared and tested. In the end, based on the defined recipe, the precast elements were made and their properties were tested. On the basis of the examinations, it was found that it is possible to obtain high quality self-compacting concrete by using the relatively simple procedure according to the UCL method.
