Van der Vurst, F. (author), Grunewald, S. (author), De Schutter, G. (author)Over time, several mix design metliods liave been developed to obtain a selfcompacting concrete (SCC) with suitable fresh and hardened concrete properties. The very fluid concrete with no need for external compaction is achieved by using a higher powder content and the use of chemical admixtures. Segregation and bleeding are prevented by either...conference paper 2015

Van der Vurst, F. (author), Grunewald, S. (author), Feys, D. (author), De Schutter, G. (author)In order to avoid durability problems caused by an inadequate consolidation of concrete, self-compacting concrete (SCC) has been developed. The mix design of SCC aims at balancing a minimum flowability allowing air bubbles to escape and a maximum flowability in order to avoid segregation. Because of the higher demands on mix design and...conference paper 2015
