Abstract:

A review is presented based on the experimental studies on concrete when it is subjected to higher elevated temperature upto 800°C. Self-Compacting Concrete gives better strength than Normal Concrete at normal temperature. Studies show that regardless of strength at normal temperature, SCC gives better mechanical properties as it is exposed to higher temperature. The paper explores the changes in the compressive strength of SCC as the temperature is elevated. The paper also shows the variation when the cooling method after heating of concrete is different. Many researchers have used different admixture to increase the strength and workability of SCC. The review of different duration of heating and their effect on the hardened properties of SCC is also incorporated in this study. The goal of this paper to accumulate the result of different researches and to set an international benchmark for further work related to SCC.
