Abstract

Self-compacting concrete is a type of concrete which is able to consolidate, flow and fill all formwork by its
own weight without any external vibration, and pass through very tight places like between reinforcement bars. For
preparing SCC mix some additional materials (other than traditional materials) such as chemical and mineral
admixtures are also required. In this study, an extensive literature reviews have been conducted on materials
proportioning, different percentage of SP dosage and use of recycle aggregates for obtaining suitable fresh and
hardened properties of self-compacting concrete. It also presents the effect of various types, various percentage and
combination of mineral admixtures on the rheological properties, compressive strength, strain, electrical resistivity
and tensile strength of SCC.
