Effect of Fly ash and Fibers over Self Compacting Concrete

Sonu Kumar, Shakti Kumar

Abstract


The study found that the addition of fly ash by swapping cement helps to reduce cement consumption, environmental pollution as well as less heat of hydration. The construction techniques have been modernized with keeping the focus on high strength, dense and uniform surface texture, more reliable quality, enhanced durability and faster construction.
In this experiment, an effort has been ended to make polyester and glass fiber fiber self compacting concrete (FRSCC). In this work, the mixtures (FRSCC) had a cement swapped of 25% fly ash and also adding of glass fiber and polyester fiber at 0.05%, 0.10%, 0.15% and 0.20% on entire bulk of mixture. The test as like slump test, V-funnel and L-box are performed for testing mixtures properties in the fresh state of concrete. Split and flexural tensile strength are performed for compression (strength of 7 days and 28 days).
