High-Strength Self-Compacting Concrete and its Application in Shenzhen Mangrove Garden

Abstract

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) refers to one kind of high-performance concrete which can fill formwork and condensed reinforced steel by the weight of concrete mixture without vibration. In this investigation, local raw materials from Shenzhen Jinqiang Concrete Co. Ltd were employed. Self-compacting concrete mixtures with targeted 3-day compressive strengths of 60MPa or 80MPa and required flow properties were evaluated. Moreover, the SCC was successfully applied in Shenzhen Mangrove Garden project.
