Abstract
Concrete technology has made tremendous strides in the past decade. The development of specifying a concrete
according to its performance requirements, rather than the constituents and ingredients has opened innumerable
opportunities for producers of concrete and users to design concrete to suit their specific requirements. One of the
most outstanding advances in the concrete technology over the lastdecade is “self-compacting concrete” (SCC).
Self-compacting concrete is a highly flowable, stable concrete which flows readily into places around congested
reinforcement, filling formwork without any consolidation and Significant segregation. The hardened concrete is
dense, homogeneous and has the same engineering properties and durability as that oftraditional vibrated concrete.
The use of SCC eliminates the need for compaction thereby saves time, reduces labor costs and conserves energy.
Furthermore use of SCC enhances surface finish characteristics.

Extensive studies have been made on Self Compacting Concrete with different combinations of mineral and
chemical admixtures. However, Limited studies were done on the behavior of SCC with GGBS, and its efficiency.
Considering this gap in existing literature an attempt has been made to study the strength efficiency of GGBS in
SCC along with their mechanical strength and durability aspects.

1. It has been verified, by using the slump flow, L box test and other tests on fresh SCC that self-compacting
concrete (SCC) achieved consistency and self-compatibility under its own weight, without any external vibration or
compaction.
2. The addition of GGBS mixes has shown improved performance in terms of strength and durability in all grades of
SCC .This is due to the presence of highly reactive silica in GGBS.
3. Studies indicated that there is a good compatibility between mineral combinations GGBS along with the chemical
admixtures. And acts as a good binder and improves the finishing of the concrete surface.
4. Experimental studies on efficiency of GGBS Combination in SCC confirmed the enhanced performance in terms
of both strength and durability aspects with respect to performance of GGBS alone in SCC.
5. It is observed that there is an increase in the peak compressive strength for different SCC mixes made with
GGBS. The increase is due to high reactivity with GGBS.
6. Addition of GGBS control the initiation of micro cracks, Improve the first crack load, the ultimate load and ductility
of SCC. They are also effective in resisting deformation.
7. The strength loss and weight loss observed to be less in mixes with GGBS.
