Self Compacting Concrete Market


Posted April 10, 2015 by MicroMktM

The demand for this Self Compacting Concrete is influenced by the growing awareness of the ability to reduce water to cement ratio, where a different dosage reflects different performance.

 
Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a flowing concrete mixture that is able to consolidate under its own weight. The highly fluid nature of SCC makes it suitable for placing in difficult conditions and in sections with congested reinforcement. Use of SCC can also help minimize hearing-related damages on the worksite that are induced by vibration of concrete. Another advantage of SCC is that the time required to place large sections is considerably reduced.

The demand for this Self Compacting Concrete is influenced by the growing awareness of the ability to reduce water to cement ratio, where a different dosage reflects different performance. With the growing demand for construction industry the market for concrete superplasticizer is also expected to grow in the future. Self-Compacting Concrete are application specific and are available globally. There are different grades of Self Compacting Concrete available in the market among the above mentioned four types. These Self Compacting Concrete can be powder and liquid-based depending upon the end-user’s interest. Generally, liquid forms are used as it is difficult to mix the powder in the concrete.

Self-consolidating concrete, also known as self-compacting concrete (SCC), is a highly flowable, non-segregating concrete that spreads into place, fills formwork, and encapsulates even the most congested reinforcement, all without any mechanical vibration. It is defined as a concrete mix that can be placed purely by means of its own weight, with little or no vibration. As a high-performance concrete, SCC delivers these attractive benefits while maintaining all of concrete's customary mechanical and durability characteristics. Adjustments to traditional mix designs and the use of superplasticizers creates flowing concrete that meets tough performance requirements. If needed, low dosages of viscosity modifier can eliminate unwanted bleeding and segregation.
