Abstract:

The research work was carried out on experimental investigation of polymerized selfcompacting concrete (PMSCC). Properties of concrete were checked by testing cubes, cylinder & beams. The specimens were cast for developing M30Grade self-compacting concrete (SCC) with locally available material. The objective of present work was to study effect of different proportion of mineral admixtures in the mix design and find out optimum percentage of mineral admixtures i.e. silica fume (SF) & marble powder (MP) with maximum strength criterion. The concrete was tested to find workability, compressive strength, split tensile strength & flexural strength. Having studied various properties optimum percentage of silica fume & marble powder to replace the cement was found.

Keywords:

polymer modified self-compacting concrete, mineral admixtures, workability, compressive strength, Flexural strength, split tensile strength.
