An Experimental Study on the Properties of Self Compacting Concrete with Incorporation of Industrial Waste

Abstract

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is an innovative concrete that does not require vibration for placing and compaction. It is able to flow under its own weight, completely filling formwork and achieving full compaction, even in the presence of congested reinforcement. The hardened concrete is dense, homogeneous and has the same engineering properties and durability as traditional vibrated concrete. Due to industrialization there is huge amount of red mud and foundry waste sand created. Aluminium is now consume during manufacture red mud which is used Red Mud and Foundry waste Sand are industrial waste and causing threat to environment so the reduce the cost of the construction also to make structure more durable, reduce problem of this material the project has been undertaken so that it can be used for construction fashion following points attempted.

1) To study the properties of foundry waste sand.

2) To blend to mix or to replace cement by different % by foundry waste sand.

3) To study properties of Red mud

4) To prepare the concrete by blending or by replacing the cement by Red mud

5) To study the comparativeness.
