Engineering Properties of Concrete by Partial Replacement of Cement with Aluminium Slag and Fine Aggregate with Foundary Sand

A self-compacting concrete (s.c.c) is a special concrete which settles itself without any vibration due to its own mass and self-weight. This will happen due to use of special admixtures which have tendency to increase the flow of concrete by reducing the viscosity nature. This particular type of concrete was developed by the japan researchers in 1988. Later it was modifies and developed in many parameter’s by UK and U.S.A researchers. This particular thesis is about the improvement of performance of the S.C.C by replacing the fines and cement of the aggregates by the waste products that obtained from the different industries. The fines are replaced partially by crushed sand obtained as quarry waste and the aluminium slag that obtained from many industries as a waste product is partially introduced as binding material By using this S.C.C the problems that are facing by the construction industries during the placement of the concrete will solve. Now days the structures are designed and made as heavy reinforced structures where the sizes of structural elements are restricted due to architectural and some structural considerations. So the concrete that poured in those elements shows t
