Abstract
SCC (Self compacting concrete) is the concrete which can flow in to the entire form work and de-aerated entirely and consolidate by its own self weight. Due to its cohesiveness, it can fill the pores of concrete at any shape and size without bleeding and segregation. This property makes, SCC to use in highly/congested reinforcement presence to pour it on/between the formwork. SCC has been found in Japan, to construct the girders, towers, piers, Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) tanks, culverts and building structures. In precast concrete industry, the usage of SCC is high where the vibration is not required. This research work concentrates on making SCC with steel fibres for the mix design of M30, M35, M40, M45, M50, M55 and M60. As per the European Federation of National Associations Representing for Concrete (EFNARC) guidelines provided for the SCC, the concrete undergone for its fresh concrete properties tests and satisfied the requirements also the compressive strength, split tensile test and modulus of rupture test on the standard specimens were performed to find its mechanical property with and without fibres. The fiber reinforced self compacting concrete (FR-SCC) has performed well when comparing to the conventional specimen.
