Abstract EN
Self-Consolidating Concrete (SCC) has been widely used in both practical and laboratory applications.
Selection of its components and their ratios depends, mainly, on the target mechanical and physical properties recommended by the project consultant.
Partial replacement of cement in SCC with cheap available industrial by-product could produce environmentally durable concrete with similar properties of normal concrete.
In the current research, SCC was produced by blending Cement Kiln Dust (CKD) with cement in different ratios.
Four mixes incorporating cement kiln dust with partial cement replacement of 10 %, 20 %, 30 %, and 40 % were produced and compared with a control mix of Normally Vibrated Concrete (NVC).
Superplasticizer was used to increase the flow-ability of SCC mixes.
The fresh and hardened mechanical properties of all mixes were determined and evaluated.
Moreover, time-dependent behavior was investigated for all mixes in terms of drying shrinkage test.
The shrinkage strain was measured for all specimens for a period of 120 days.
Based on the experimental results, it was found that SCC mixture containing 20 % cement replacement of CKD exhibited the highest mechanical strength compared to other SCC mixes and NVC mix as well.
It was observed that the volumetric changes of specimens were directly proportional to the increase of the cement replacement ratio.
