Experimental and Numerical Characterization of Self-Compacting Concrete «Using Construction Waste»

Abstract:

This work carries an experimental study on the composition and the characterization of the self-compacting concretes made starting from waste of construction with comparisons which were made by contribution with the vibrated concrete. Studies on the workability and the compactness of material were made and this in a fresh state and a hardened state. Five different mechanical tests were performed: compression, direct tensile, splitting tensile, 3 points binding and failure to the shear force. Confrontations of the test results compared to formulas for calculating the shear force were realized. All the test results showed an increase in terms of resistance for SCC contribution to the VC, except the direct tensile test which gave values slightly lower. The SCC improves the failure load notably and gives better mechanical performances.
