Flowability of self-compacting concrete containing marine materials and steel fiber

Abstract

Abstract In order to eliminate the main problems of clean water shortage and fine aggregate in the low land areas and the distant islands, it is purpose to utilize the sea water, marine sand, Portland composite cement and steel fiber to produce the high performance Self Compacting Concrete (SCC). The evaluation result on the mix design and flowability (slump flow, segregation) were discussed. The test results show that SCC made from sea water, marine sand and steel fibers was non-segregating concrete with a highly flowable type of concrete that spreads into the form without the need for mechanical vibration.
