PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF SELF COMPACTING CONCRETE CONTAINING MOUND ASH & STEEL FIBRE

Civil Engineering

Now a day’s high quality concrete is the goal for every producer to supply to every customer. With raising the cost of raw materials using the costs of raw materials using the cost effective concrete possible is essential in any project. One method for achieving this goal is by incorporating a pozzolanic replacement material, such as fly ash into concrete. Fly ash is a pozzolanic replacement material that is a finely divided residue that results from the combustion of coal. Self-compacting concrete is defined as remarkable deformability in the fresh condition and elevated segregation resistance. The employ of fine materials in SCC is needed sush as fly ash to make certain the obligatory concrete properties. Fly ash will improve the compressive strength but splitting tensile strength will not increase. Use of steel fibre can solve this problem. Hooked steel fibres were prepared from mild steel drawn wires. In this research, to carry out test on Steel Fibre Reinforced Concrete with Mound Ash at a fibre content 0%, 0.5%, 1%, & 1.5% and Mound Ash content 0, 10, 20, 30% and determine the compressive strength, tensile strength, flexural strength, permeability & durability.
