Experimental Investigation of Compressive Strength of Self Compacting Concrete for Various Powder Content at Different Curing Regime
Mahesh Manwani, Dr. A. K. Dwivedi
Abstract: This study investigates the compressive strength of self-compacting concrete (SCC) with varying powder content under different curing regimes. The research focuses on M30 and M40 grades of SCC, with twenty-four mixes prepared for each grade. Fly ash, constituting 25% to 50% of the cement weight, was used as a mineral admixture. The SCC cubes were subjected to jute bag curing, water curing, and chemical curing and tested at 7, 28, and 56 days. Results indicate that higher powder content increases compressive strength, with chemical curing showing promise in waterscarce regions. This study highlights the ecological benefits of using fly ash in SCC and suggests optimal conditions for achieving maximum compressive strength. The obtained results were very promising and should be suggesting the use of chemical curing in the waterscarce areas.
Keywords: Self-compacting concrete, compressive strength, curing regimes, powder content, fly ash
