Production of Self Compacting Concrete SCC with Portland and Blended Cement CEM I, CEM II with Fly Ash and Limestone Admixtures

Abstract:

Production of SCC concrete involves using a higher amount of fine particles consisting primarily of using increased amounts of cement and one or more admixtures. Due to the economic performance of Portland cements, recently looking for ways to lower the environmental and economic burdens. The first production of SCC concrete production was recommended only cements CEM I. Now, the standards EN 206 specify such a requirement and therefore attempt to use cement CEM II and higher amount of admixtures. This paper points out the possibility of using blended cement CEM II in combination with admixtures and particular monitors rheological properties of fresh SCC concrete.
