Abstract

The influence of quantity and shape of coarse aggregate and flowability of mortar on flowability of self-compacting concrete is investigated in this study. The coefficient of thickness of mortar layer is introduced based on coefficient of coarse aggregate's shape, quantity of coarse aggregate and solid content in coarse aggregate. The coefficient of coarse aggregate's shape is introduced by projection circumference, projection area, volume and grading of coarse aggregate. The flowability of self-compacting concrete can be estimated by coefficient of thickness of mortar layer and flowability of mortar.
