Abstract EN
In this world of rapid urbanization the demand for natural construction materials is increasing day by day which has created a necessity for alternative construction materials.
Recycling of materials is a possible way of eradicating the acute shortage of materials.
Considerable work has been done in the area of self-compacting concrete by partial replacement of coarse aggregates (CA) with recycled coarse aggregates (RCA) obtained from construction and demolition debris.
The present study has been done by adding steel fibers to concrete in a view of improving the mechanical properties of SCC so that it can be applied in beam column joints.
An ideal mix proportion was arrived at, as a result of repeated trials and specimens that were cast and cured.
The compression, tensile, and flexural strength parameters were determined and the result has been presented.
The results obtained reveal that brick bats in combination with steel fibres may be used extensively in SCC.
