Production of self-compacting concrete using limestone powder

摘要

Although there are visible signs of its gradual acceptance in North Africa through its limited use in construction, Libya has yet to explore the feasibility and applicability of self-compacting concrete (SCO in new construction. The current study revolves around SCC made of locally available materials and the harsh environmental conditions. This paper deals with the investigation into the effect of the water to powder ratio and limestone powder (L5P) on the fresh and hardened properties of SCC.
