Study on Preparation Technique for Low-Cost Green Reactive Powder Concrete

Abstract:

Based on experiments, the effect of various types and content of mineral admixtures and steel fiber on flexural strength and compressive strength of reactive powder concrete (RPC) have been studied. The low-cost green RPC is made with the replacement of quartz sand, quartz powder and partial silica fume by natural fine aggregate and fly ash. The preparation techniques of RPC was also improved.
