Study on the Material Mechanical Performance of Large Scale Self-Compacting Rock-Filled Concrete

Abstract

In order to study the influence of large size aggregate on self-compacting rock-filled concrete, the compactness between self-compacting concrete (SCC) and rocks, as well as the whole workability of self-compacting rock-filled concrete, the experimental test in the present paper was carried out on the 500-ton electro-hydraulic serve testing machine and the sizes of specimens are 450mm×450mm×450mm and 450mm×450mm×900mm. The results show that the exterior damage of self-compacting rock-filled concrete specimens are different from that of standard concrete specimens; the damage sections are flat and rocks are cut through in some areas, which shows mainly bond failure at interfaces between self-compacting concrete (SCC) and rocks. The compactness inside is well and the strength of self-compacting rock-filled concrete can almost reach that of SCC, which provides theoretical basis for the application of self-compacting rock-filled concrete.
