Concrete is Most widely used construction Material in the Modern Era because of its good Compressive strength and
high durability. As we know Concrete comprises a Mixture of cement, sand (fine aggregate), course aggregate and water
which makes up normal plain concrete, to increase the strength of concrete we can design the mix with greater Flexibility,
but the problems Arises in structure as load age, increaseof floors which demands increase of high strength concrete
and more steel. So, especially at the beams, columns joints heavy reinforcement meshing is done so that it becomes If
the concrete is not compacted then strength may not be achieved, so the solution for the problem is SCC which we call
it asself-compacting concrete. Were this SCC has ability to compact by itself Gravity and self-flow ability same strength

A Review Paper on Re-vibration of Fly Ash ConcreteIRJET Journal
This document summarizes a research paper that studied the effect of re-vibration on fly ash concrete. It found that re-vibrating concrete after initial vibration at time intervals between 30 minutes to 2 hours improved properties like compressive strength, surface hardness, and permeability.

The specimens were then cooled using two methods and tested to determine their mechanical properties. The study found that specimens with GI weld mesh confinement had higher strength, energy absorption and stiffness after exposure to high temperature compared to conventional concrete specimens without mesh confinement. Specimens cooled through air drying also performed better than those cooled through quenching. The GI weld mesh confined concrete showed improved properties like load carrying capacity and deformation resistance after exposure to high temperature.
This document summarizes the test certificate of Wonder Cement PPC. It discusses the batch number coding system used on cement bags and provides details on the physical and chemical properties tested, including fineness, setting time, soundness, and compressive strength. The presentation was given by Pawan Dhillon and Krishna Soni from the concrete testing department. Test results for the specific batch of Wonder Cement PPC met all Indian standards requirements for properties such as insoluble residue, magnesia content, and chloride content.
This document discusses high-strength and high-performance concrete. It notes that high-strength concrete is defined based on compressive strength, while high-performance concrete must meet additional requirements of workability, durability and strength. The document outlines typical classifications of concrete strength and discusses the microstructure, materials, mechanical behavior, and applications of high-strength concrete. It provides examples of the Petronas Towers, which used 40-80 MPa concrete and realized structural economy and simplified construction through the use of high-strength concrete.
Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a highly fluid concrete that can spread and consolidate under its own weight without vibration. It was developed in Japan in the 1980s to solve issues with vibration and ensure durable concrete structures. SCC spreads easily and fills forms completely, even around dense reinforcement. This eliminates the need for vibration and ensures uniform consolidation, but it requires precise material proportions and testing. While allowing for complex designs and construction time savings, SCC is also more expensive than traditional concrete due to material and testing costs. It therefore provides benefits for certain applications but cannot be used universally.
The document discusses specifications for aggregates used in concrete from natural sources according to Indian Standard IS 383. It outlines various tests that should be performed on aggregates including aggregate crushing value, impact value, abrasion value, flakiness and soundness. The crushing value and impact value tests determine the strength of aggregates and maximum allowed values are specified based on the application of concrete. The abrasion and soundness tests evaluate durability of aggregates and maximum loss percentages are also standardized. Using aggregates that conform to these specifications and standards ensures production of high quality concrete.

structural and modal analysis of an engine block by varying materialsIjripublishers Ijri
The largest part of the engine is cylinder block. The upper section of the cylinder block consists of cylinders and pistons. Crankcase is supported by the crankshaft and it is placed in the lower section. Aluminum cylinder blocks are lighter than the cast-iron cylinder blocks of the same size. Cylinder block, pistons, cylinder head, crankshaft and connecting rods are the major elements of the engine. IC engine cooling uses either a liquid or gas to remove the unnecessary heat from an internal combustion engine. For special purpose and small engines, air cooling makes for a lightweight and relatively simple system, if we use the materials with better waste heat dissipation it will help in achieving better efficiencies and long life of the engine.

he present paper deals with the effect of volume fraction of fillers on the thermal Properties of polymer composites. This work sees an opportunity of enhancement on insulation capability of a typical fiber reinforced polymer composite. To validate this mathematical model, a set of epoxy based composites, with fiber content ranging 4.38 to 20.10% of volume fractions have been prepared by simple hand lay-up technique. For preparing the composite, natural fiber i.e. Pine apple leaf fibers are incorporated in Epoxy Resin. Thermal conductivities of these composite samples are measured as per ASTM standard E-1530 by using the Unitherm™ Model 2022 tester, which operates on the double guarded heat flow principle at the temperature ranging from 30˚C to 150˚C. And also the Specific Heat of the powdered samples are measured by using Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC). By using the MATLAB the numerical analysis is carried out to find the value of Thermal Diffusivity with varying temperatures. It was observed that the thermal diffusivity varies with fiber concentration, but the variation of thermal diffusivity with varying temperature was not so significant.

With the growing quantity of pictures users distribute from node to node social networks, retaining confidentiality has turn out to be a foremost predicament, as declared by a latest wave of made known occurrences wherever users unintentionally shared individual profile. In radiance of these occurrences made necessitate of tools to assist users organize access to their distributed data is evident. In the direction of speak to this requirement, we suggest an Adaptive Privacy Policy forecast (A3P) scheme to facilitate users compile confidentiality settings for their pictures. We observe the responsibility of communal context, picture content, and metadata as possible sign of users’ confidentiality preference. We recommend a two-level structure which according to the user’s obtainable times past on the site, establishs the most excellent obtainable confidentiality policy for the user’s pictures being uploaded. Our solution relies on an image classification framework for image categories which may be associated with similar policies, and on a policy prediction algorithm to automatically generate a policy for each newly uploaded image, also according to users’ social features. Over time, the generated policies will follow the evolution of users’ privacy attitude. We provide the results of our extensive evaluation over 5,000 policies, which demonstrate the effectiveness of our system, with prediction accuracies over 90 percent.

In available practically proven Data clustering practices for eradicating same copies of replicated data, Data de-replication is one of significant mechanisms, and has been extensively practiced in cloud storage to diminish the quantity of storage space and accumulate bandwidth. To guard the privacy of responsive data though sustaining de-replication, the convergent encryption technique has been anticipated to encrypt the data before redirecting. For an improvised shielding of data safety, this paper formulates the primary effort to formally speak to the problem of approved data de-replication. Diverse from conventional de-replication systems, the discrepancy privileges of users are auxiliary considered in replica verification besides the data itself. In this we introduce several novel de-replication structural methods in sustaining approved replica test in hybrid cloud architecture. Safety examination demonstrates that our system is protected in terms of the description particular in the anticipated security model. As an evidence of perception, we execute a model of our anticipated approved replica check method and perform test-bed research using our model. We demonstrate that our anticipated approved replica check method acquire minimal overhead evaluated to standard procedures.

This paper presents a novel way to reduce noise introduced or exacerbated by image enhancement methods, in particular algorithms based on the random spray sampling technique, but not only. According to the nature of sprays, output images of spray-based methods tend to exhibit noise with unknown statistical distribution. To avoid inappropriate assumptions on the statistical characteristics of noise, a different one is made. In fact, the non-enhanced image is considered to be either free of noise or affected by non-perceivable levels of noise. Taking advantage of the higher sensitivity of the human visual system to changes in brightness, the analysis can be limited to the luma channel of both the non-enhanced and enhanced image. Also, given the importance of directional content in human vision, the analysis is performed through the dual-tree complex wavelet transform , lanczos interpolator and edge preserving smoothing filters. Unlike the discrete wavelet transform, the DTWCT allows for distinction of data directionality in the transform space. For each level of the transform, the standard deviation of the non-enhanced image coefficients is computed across the six orientations of the DTWCT, then it is normalized.
Keywords: dual-tree complex wavelet transform (DTWCT), lanczos interpolator, edge preserving smoothing filters.

Conventional refrigeration system is a type of refrigeration systems which are costly; noisy, harmful gases released from a machine based on application of this type of system and it is required more maintenance. So, we need to go for unconventional refrigeration systems like vortex tube refrigeration system, which produce less vibrations and which require less maintenance and which are noiseless. It is required for our mechanical engineers to look for enhancing the performance of such vortex tubes. So as a part of my project work, I have chosen various sizes of vortex tubes and test their performances for finding out optimum performance. We will be testing the performance of vortex tubes with different ‘l/d’ ratios and different cold fractions, with different pressures and different nozzle sizes.

The composites exhibited low densities and thermal properties, indicating potential as lightweight insulating materials.
Ijri te-03-013 modeling and thermal analysis of air-conditioner evaporatorIjripublishers Ijri
Air conditioning evaporator works by absorb heat from the area (medium) that need to be cooled. It does that by maintaining the evaporator coil at low temperature and pressure than the surrounding air. Since, the AC evaporator coil contains refrigerant that absorbs heat from the surrounding air, the refrigerant temperature must be lower than the air.
In our project we have modeling an air-cooled evaporator for a home 1.5ton air conditioner. Presently the material used for coils is copper and the material used for fins is copper or aluminum. A 3D model of the evaporator is done in parametric software Pro/Engineer.
To validate the temperatures and other thermal quantities like flux and gradient, thermal analysis is done on the evaporator coil by applying properties copper and suitable material like aluminum. And also we are varying inside cooling fluid Hydrocarbon (HC) and Hydro chloroflouro carbon (HCFC).The best material for the evaporator of our design can be checked by comparing the results.
Thermal analysis is done in ANSYS.

Water-cooled chiller systems have typically been designed around entering condenser water temperatures of 85°F with a Optimization of Water - Cooled Chiller – Cooling Tower Combinations The warm water leaving the chilled water coils is pumped to the evaporator of the chiller, where the unwanted heat from the building is transferred by the latent heat of vaporization of the refrigerant. The compressor of the chiller then compresses the refrigerant to a higher pressure, adding the heat of compression in the process. The high pressure refrigerant then moves to the economical condenser water flow of 3.0 USGPM/ton and a 10°F denser, where the unwanted heat is rerange. In recent years, there has been considerable debate on the merits of designing around lower condenser water flow rates with a higher range in order to improve system lifecycle costs. However, two other parameters must also be considered in any analysis - approach and design wet bulb. The question to be answered is: What nominal condenser water flow rate and approach is best from a first cost standpoint as well as from a full load energy standpoint at any given wet bulb.

This paper proposes a new mechanism called HMADCAS for continuous user authentication and adaptive session management in distributed internet services. HMADCAS uses biometric information like facial recognition to authenticate users transparently without requiring explicit user actions. It assigns adaptive session timeouts based on the quality, frequency and type of biometric data obtained from the user. The goal is to balance security and usability by keeping user sessions open even during periods of user inactivity, while continuously authenticating the user to detect potential intrusions. The paper discusses the system architecture of HMADCAS and describes modules for authentication servers, certificates and continuous authentication using biometrics.

Decolonizing Universal Design for LearningFrederic Fovet
UDL has gained in popularity over the last decade both in the K-12 and the post-secondary sectors. The usefulness of UDL to create inclusive learning experiences for the full array of diverse learners has been well documented in the literature, and there is now increasing scholarship examining the process of integrating UDL strategically across organisations. One concern, however, remains under-reported and under-researched. Much of the scholarship on UDL ironically remains while and Eurocentric. Even if UDL, as a discourse, considers the decolonization of the curriculum, it is abundantly clear that the research and advocacy related to UDL originates almost exclusively from the Global North and from a Euro-Caucasian authorship. It is argued that it is high time for the way UDL has been monopolized by Global North scholars and practitioners to be challenged. Voices discussing and framing UDL, from the Global South and Indigenous communities, must be amplified and showcased in order to rectify this glaring imbalance and contradiction.
This session represents an opportunity for the author to reflect on a volume he has just finished editing entitled Decolonizing UDL and to highlight and share insights into the key innovations, promising practices, and calls for change, originating from the Global South and Indigenous Communities, that have woven the canvas of this book. The session seeks to create a space for critical dialogue, for the challenging of existing power dynamics within the UDL scholarship, and for the emergence of transformative voices from underrepresented communities. The workshop will use the UDL principles scrupulously to engage participants in diverse ways (challenging single story approaches to the narrative that surrounds UDL implementation) , as well as offer multiple means of action and expression for them to gain ownership over the key themes and concerns of the session (by encouraging a broad range of interventions, contributions, and stances).

Images as attribute values in the Odoo 17Celine George
Product variants may vary in color, size, style, or other features. Adding pictures for each variant helps customers see what they're buying. This gives a better idea of the product, making it simpler for customers to take decision. Including images for product variants on a website improves the shopping experience, makes products more visible, and can boost sales.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the creation of images and videos, enabling the generation of highly realistic and imaginative visual content. Utilizing advanced techniques like Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and neural style transfer, AI can transform simple sketches into detailed artwork or blend various styles into unique visual masterpieces. GANs, in particular, function by pitting two neural networks against each other, resulting in the production of remarkably lifelike images. AI's ability to analyze and learn from vast datasets allows it to create visuals that not only mimic human creativity but also push the boundaries of artistic expression, making it a powerful tool in digital media and entertainment industries.

INTRODUCTION
GENERAL
Self – compacting concrete (SCC) is a fluid mixture, which
is suitable for placing difficult conditions and also in con-
gested reinforcement, without vibration. In principle, a
self – compacting or self – consolidating concrete must:
• Have a fluidity that allows self – compaction without
External energy
• Remains homogeneous in a form during and after the
process and
• Flow easily through reinforcement
Self-consolidating concrete has recently been used in the
pre – cast industry and in some commercial applications,
however the relatively high material cost still hinders the
wide spread use of such specialty concrete in various seg-
ments of the construction industry, including commercial
and residential construction.
Compared with conventional concrete of similar me-
chanical properties, the material cost of SCC is more
due to relatively high demand of Cementation materials
and chemical admixtures including high – range water
reducing admixtures (HRWRA) and viscosity enhancing
admixtures (VEA). Typically, the content in Cementation
materials can vary between 450 and 525 Kg/m3
for SCC
targeted for the filling of highly restricted areas and for re-
pair applications. Such applications require low aggregate
volume to facilitate flow among restricted spacing without
blockage and ensure the filling of the formwork without
consolidation. The incorporation of high volumes of finely
ground powder materials is necessary to enhance cohe-
siveness and increase the paste volume required for suc-
cessful casting of SCC.
scope and objective of investigation
• Involves finding the effect of GGBS (ground granulated
blast furnace slag) when replaced with cement of 40% and
50% percentages for both M30 & M40 grades, mainly
to increase the compressive strength and bring down the
emission of gas such as co2
& cost & make the concrete
cost effective.
• In general, increasing the CaO content of the slag re-
sults in raised slag basicity and an increase in compres-
sive strength.
• Adding super plasticizer as poly carboxylic either
(ADVA960) is a (retarder) used to increase the initial set-
ting time and the secondary effect reduce the W/C ratio
20% to 30%.
• The mix designs calculated for SCC M30 & SCC M40 for
replacing 40% & 50% ggbs by using IS10262-2009 code.
• This experiment is made to the self compacting ability
by conducting test such as slump flow test, L box test, v
box test when it replaced by GGBS and calculating the
compressive strength by changing W/C ratio.
Abstract
Concrete is Most widely used construction Material in the Modern Era because of its good Compressive strength and
high durability. As we know Concrete comprises a Mixture of cement, sand (fine aggregate), course aggregate and water
which makes up normal plain concrete, to increase the strength of concrete we can design the mix with greater Flexibil-
ity, but the problems Arises in structure as load age, increaseof floors which demands increase of high strength concrete
and more steel. So, especially at the beams, columns joints heavy reinforcement meshing is done so that it becomes If
the concrete is not compacted then strength may not be achieved, so the solution for the problem is SCC which we call
it asself-compacting concrete. Were this SCC has ability to compact by itself Gravity and self-flow ability same strength
can be Here in the research, it is carried out self-compaction concrete to improve strength & make concrete economical
so, a mix is dispend of M30,M40 Grades with adding chemical admixture named poly carboxylic ether (ADVA960) , a
Retarder Basically Which also increases strength and workability &replacing cement with GGBS (Ground Granulated
Blast Furnace Slag) 40%&50% .The tests are carried out to find the increase in strength by adding chemical admixture &
replacing GGBS 40% & 50%.By the chemical admixture adding up to 2% Max were previous strength shows that adding
of chemical admixture greater than 2% which results to increase the initial setting time and decrease in the w/c ratio.
Test will be conducted for 3,7,28 days find the increase of strength and its other properties

Test on materials
cement
The most common cement currently used in construc-
tion is type I/I I Portland cement. This cement conform
to the strength requirement of a Type I and the C3A
content restriction of a Type II. This type of cement is
typically used in construction and is readily available
from a variety of sources. The Blaine fineness is used
to quantify the surface area of cement.
The surface area provides a direct indication of the ce-
ment fineness. The typical fineness of cement ranges from
350 to 500m2
/kg for Type I and Type III cements, respec-
tively.

and add 30% by weight (90 ml) water to it.
• Mix water and cement on a non-porous surface thor-
oughly with in 3 to 4 minutes.
• The cement paste is filled in the vicat’s mould and top
surface is leveled with a trowel. The filled up mould shall
be placed along with its bottom non-porous plate on the
base plate of the vicat’s apparatus centrally below the
movable rod.
• The plunger is quickly released into the paste. The set-
tlement of the plunger is noted down. If the penetration
is between 33 mm to 35 mm from top (or) 5 mm to 7 mm
from the bottom, the amount of water added is correct.
• If the penetration is less than required, process is re-
peated with different percentages of water till the desired
penetration is obtained.

the initial setting time needle fails to penetrate the cement
paste kept in the mould by about 33-35 mm from the top
or 5-7 mm from bottom of the indicator is called initial
setting time.
• Take a cement sample weighing 300 gm, sieved through
I.S. sieve No. 9 and mixed with percentage of water as
determined in normal consistency test.
• Stopwatch should be started at the instant when water
is added to the cement. Now the prepared cement paste is
filled in vicat’s mould and leveled with trowel.
• the mould filled with cement paste kept on the non po-
rous plate is now placed under the movable rod with ini-
tial setting time needle of cross section 1mm x 1mm the
needle is quickly released and it is allowed to penetrate
the cement paste.
• In the beginning the needle penetrates completely. It is
then taken out and dropped at a fresh place. This proce-
dure is repeated at regular intervals till the needle does
not penetrate the block for about 5 mm measured from
the bottom of indicator. Note the time for initial setting
of cement.
• The initial setting time of an ordinary Portland cement
shall not be less than 30 minutes.
Final setting time:
• After noting the time for initial setting of cement,
• The needle shall be replaced by the final setting time
needle and then movable rod is slowly released on to the
cement paste.
• In the initial stages the needle and collar may pierce
through the paste. But after some time the same proce-
dure is followed.
• Such trials shall be carried out until the needle only
makes as impression on the top surface of the cement
paste and the collar of the needle fails to do so.
• Note the time for final setting time of cement. The final
setting time of an ordinary Portland cement shall not be
more than 10 hours
.
Result: 1. Initial setting time of cement= 180 Min
2. Final setting time of cement = 342 Min
SOUNDNESS OF CEMENT
Unsoundness of cement means, that the cement having
excess lime, magnesium sulphates, etc. due to excess of
these items there will be volume changes and large expan-
sions, there by reduces the durability of the structures.
AIM: - To find out the soundness of cement.
APPARATUS: - Le-Chatelier Apparatus Cement,
Water,
Glass plate.
Procedure:-
• Cement is gauged with 0.78 times the water required for
standard consistency (0.78P) in a standard manner and
filled in to the Le-Chatelier mould which is present on the
on the glass plate.
• The mould is covered on the top with another glass plate.
• The whole assembly is immersed in water at tempera-
ture of 27o
C to 32o
C and kept there for 24 hrs.
• Measure the distance between the indicator points.

• Submerge the mould again in water, heat the water up
to boiling point in 30 minutes and keep it boiling for 3
hrs.
• Remove the mould from hot water and allow it to cool
and measure the distance between the indicator points.
• The distance between these two measurements gives the
expansion of cement.
• This must not exceed 10mm for OPC, RHC, LHC, etc.
• If the expansion is more than 10mm, the cement is un-
sound.
Soundness of cement:- 8mm
BULKING OF SAND
The volume of fine aggregate may increase by 1% to 5%
due to presence of moisture. This property of increase in
volume of fine aggregate due to moisture is called bulking.
AIM:- To find out the bulking factor of fine aggregate.
APPARATUS: - Container,
Sand,
Water,
Mixing Pan.
Procedure :-
i) Take about 6 liters of dry compacted sand and weigh it
and dump it into a mixing pan.
ii) Add a certain known percentage of water by weight of
dry sand.
iii) Mix rapidly and thoroughly till a uniform color is ob-
tained and fill the container with the wet sand without
any tamping.
iv) Now strike off the top surface and weigh and thus find
the weight of wet sand.
v) Repeat the experiment No. of times increasing in water
content from 2% to 8%.

GGBS (GROUND GRANULATED BLAST FURNACE
SLAGE)
The chemical composition of a slag varies considerably
depending on the composition of the raw materials in the
iron production process. Silicate and aluminates impu-
rities from the ore and coke are combined in the blast
furnace with a flux which lowers the viscosity of the slag.
In the case of pig iron production the flux consists mostly
of a mixture of limestone and forsterite or in some cases
dolomite. In the blast furnace the slag floats on top of the
iron and is decanted for separation. Slow cooling of slag
melts results in an unreactive crystalline material con-
sisting of an assemblage of Ca-Al-Mg silicates. To obtain
a good slag reactivity or hydraulicity, the slag melt needs
to be rapidly cooled or quenched below 800 °C in order to
prevent the crystallization of merwinite and melilite. To
cool and fragment the slag a granulation process can be
applied in which molten slag is subjected to jet streams
of water or air under pressure. Alternatively, in the pel-
letization process the liquid slag is partially cooled with
water and subsequently projected into the air by a rotat-
ing drum. In order to obtain a suitable reactivity, the ob-
tained fragments are ground to reach the same fineness
as Portland cement, chemical component of GGBS

• In general increasing the CaO content of the slag results
in raised slag basicity and an increase in compressive
strength.
• The MgO and Al2

content show the same trend up to
respectively 10-12% and 14%, beyond which no further
improvement can be obtained.
• Several compositional ratios or so-called hydraulic in-
dices have been used to correlate slag composition with
hydraulic activity; the latter being mostly expressed as
the binder compressive strength.
• The glass content of slag suitable for blending with
4. 203
International Journal of Research and Innovation (IJRI)
Portland cement typically varies between 90-100% and
depends on the cooling method and the temperature at
which cooling is initiated.
• The glass structure of the quenched glass largely de-
pends on the proportions of network-forming elements
such as Si and Al over network-modifiers such as Ca, Mg
and to a lesser extent Al.
• Increased amounts of network-modifiers lead to higher
degrees of network depolymerization and reactivity.
• Common crystalline constituents of blast-furnace slag
are merwinite and melilite.
• Other minor Components which can form during pro-
gressive crystallization, arebelite, monticellite, rankinite,
wollastonite and forsterite. Minor amounts of reduced
sulphur are commonly encountered as oldhamite.
• The performance of slag largely depends on the chemical
composition. Glass content and fineness of grinding. The
quality of slag is governed by IS 12089 of 1987
Placing Of Mix In Moulds
After mixing the proportions in the mixing machine, it is
taken out into the bucket. The concrete is placed in to
the moulds (cubes, beams & cylinders), which are already
oiled simply by means of hands only without using any
compacting devises.
Curing
After 24 hours the specimens were removed from
the moulds and immediately submerged in clean fresh
water and kept there until taken out just prior to testing.
Properties Of Scc specimen
Workability
The level of fluidity of the SCC is governed chiefly by
the dosing of the Super plasticizer. However overdos-
ing may lead to the risk of segregation and block-
age. Consequently the characteristics of the fresh SCC
need to be carefully controlled using preferably two
of the different types of test.
Segregation Resistance
Due to the high fluidity of SCC, the risk of segregation
and blocking is very high. Preventing segregation is there-
fore an important feature of the control regime. The ten-
dency to segregation can be reduced by the use of a
sufficient amount of fines (<0.125mm), or using a
Viscosity Modifying Admixture (VMA).
Open Time
The time during which the Scc maintains its desired rheo-
logical properties is very important to obtain good results
in the concrete placing. This time can be adjusted by
choosing the right type of super plasticizers or the com-
bined use of retarding admixtures. Different admix-
tures have different effects on open time and they can
be used according to the type of cement and the timing
of the transport and placing of the SCC
Properties of Hardened SCC
Shrinkage And Creep
None of the results obtained indicates that the shrinkage
and the creep of the SCC mixes were significantly greater
than those of traditional vibrated concrete.
Some Aspects Of Durability
Elements of all types of concrete have been left exposed
for future assessment of durability but some preliminary
tests have been carried out.
The permeability of the concrete, a recognized indicator
of likely durability, has been examined by measuring the
water absorption of near surface concrete. The results
suggest that in the SCC mixes, the near surface con-
crete was denser and more resistant to water ingress
than in the reference mixes. Carbonation depths have
been measured at one year. The civil mixes (both SCC and
reference) show no carbonation. The evidence in hand
and data from other source suggest that the durability
performance of SCC is likely to be equal or better
than that of traditional vibrated concrete.
Structural Performances
The structural performance of the concrete was as-
sessed by loading the full-size reinforced columns and
beams to failure. For the columns, the actual failure load
exceeded the calculated failure load for both types of
concrete (SCC and traditional vibrated concrete).
For the beams the only available comparison is between
SCC and traditional vibrated concrete in the civil engi-
neering category. Here the behavior of the two con-
cretes in terms of cracking moment, crack width & load-
deflection was similar

Mortar:-
Mortar also plays a vital role as solid particle in
SCC. This property is so called “pressure transfer-
ability” which can be apparent when the coarse aggregate
particles approach each other and mortar is in between
coarse aggregate particles. Here the mortar is subjected
to normal stress. The degree of the decrease in shear
deformability of mortar largely depends on the physi-
cal characteristics of the solid pattern in the mo tar. It
was found that the relation between the flow ability of
mortar and concrete couldn’t always be same due to
differences in the characteristics of the solid particles in
the mortar.
Water /Cement Ratio and S.P Dosage:-
The characteristics of powder and S.P largely affect the
mortar property and so the proper water cement ratio
and S.P dosage cannot be fixed without trail mixing.
Therefore once the mix proportion is decided self-compat-
ibility has to be formulated. So that we can establish a
rational method for adjusting the water cement ratio and
S.P dosage to achieve appropriate deformability and vis-
cosity.
Compressive strength
In all SCC mixes compressive strengths of standard cube
specimens were comparable to those of traditional vibrat-
ed concrete made with similar water-cement ratios – if
anything strengths were higher
In-situ strengths of SCC are similar to those of traditional
vibrated concrete, indeed somewhat higher when lime-
stone powder is used as filler, probably because of a dig-
nifying mechanism and the observed lower susceptibility
to imperfect curing, both attribute to this type of filler.
The in-situ strengths of both types of civil engineering
concrete, SCC and traditional vibrated concrete were
closer to standard cube strengths than those of the
housing mixes again; this is typical of higher strength
concrete.
In vertical element, in-situ strengths of both SCC and tra-
ditional vibrated concrete are higher at the bottom than
at the top, vibration of in-situ strengths, for both types
of concrete is much lower in horizontal elements, in this
case the beams. These observations are characteristic of
traditional vibrated concrete. The in- situ strengths of
elements cast and cured outdoors in winter (the
beams), whether SCC or conventional, were lower than
those cast indoors at the same time (the columns).
Overall, we might conclude that the fresh self-compacting
properties of the concrete have little effect on the in-situ
strengths.
Tensile Strength
Tensile strength was assessed indirectly by the splitting
test on cylinders. For SCC, both the tensile strengths
themselves, and the relationships between tensile and
compressive strengths were of a similar order to those of
traditional vibrated concrete.
Bonding Strength
The strength of the bond between concrete and re-
inforcement was assessed by pullout tests, using de-
form med reinforcing steel of two different diameters,
embedded in concrete prisms. For both civil engineering
and housing categories, the SCC bond strengths, related
to the standard compressive strengths, were higher than
those of the reference concrete were.
Modulus Of Elasticity
Results available indicate that the relationships be-
tween static modulus of elasticity and compressive
strengths were similar for SCC and the reference mixes.
A relationship in the form of E/(fc) 0.5 has been widely
reported, and all values of this ratio were close to
the one recommended by ACT for structural calculations
for normal weight traditional vibrated concrete.
Mix Design

able ingrients of concrete and determine with the object
of producing concrete of certain minimum strength and
durability as economical as possible.

Conclusion
• When compare to the previous papers test’s on replacing GGBS
above 30% the compressive strength have reduced, for every in-
terval of replacing 5%. Added Conplast SP430 as super plasti-
cizer and maintained w/c ratio is kept constant throughout the
investigation as 0.45.
• as per Results suggest that as much of 50% of cement can be
replaced without any significant consequences on the concrete,
by using the chemical admixture as super plasticizer ADVA960
(poly carboxylic either) is a retarder increase the initial setting
time
• Compressive strength is increased by replacing 50% of GGBS
for cement and maintained w/c ratio as per mix design obtained,
the mineral admixture replacement have a better workable con-
crete.

Scope for Further Study
SCC can be replaced upto 50% further test can be carried out by
increasing percentage and maintain w/c ratio as per mix design,
Since there is no standard method of mix design is available for
SCC. Hence the mix proportion is obtained as per the guidelines
of IS10262-2009 so further study’s can be carried out to find the
Durability &serviceability factors, temperature effect and flexural
strength add present of GGBS more than 50% may shows vari-
ation in obtaining strength.
