Savings in cement Reducing heat of hydration Reducing water demand Spherical shape and smooth surface of flyash
helps to reduce the inter-particle friction and thus facilitates mobility.
Reduce Bleeding and drying shrinkage. Fly ash particles plasticize cement paste and
improves flowability and rheology of the mix. Contributes to strength

Condensed Silica Fume is a by product of ferro-Silicon alloy industry and it is the dust which is collected from furnace exhaust system
Fineness of silica fume is @ 15000 m2/kg as against 280 to 290 m2/kg of Cement
Contributes significantly to compressive strength due to micro-filler effect and excellent pozzolanic properties
Leads to increase in density and reduction of permeability in concrete
It’s use is must for manufacturing of concrete above M50 Contd…

Admixtures are materials mostly chemicals that are added in small quantities during the preparation of concrete to impart certain specific properties to it.The requirements may be
Improving the workability of concrete during placing Retarding or accelerating setting Improving the impermeability and water tightness of the
cast concrete. Imparting corrosion inhibition etc Entraining air in concrete

PUMPABLE CONCRETE
1. Air entrainers :
TYPES OF ADMIXTURES
They entrain air in the form of micro air bubbles which helps in improving the durability of concrete in freezing environment, sulphate and alkali attack.
2. Water reducers
To reduce the water-cement ratio and yet retain workability. It is possible to reduce water upto 12%. The only precaution is that it should be mixed thoroughly
3. Accelerating admixtures :To accelerate setting of cement in cold environment or where early setting is desired.It assists in early removal of form work
4. Retarding admixtures :
To delay the setting time of concrete, for RMC supplied to far off sites.Prolongs setting time, giving higher strength at later stages, also results in reduction in micro cracks.
5. Super plasticisers :To make flowing concrete for concreting in heavily reinforced sections, tremie concrete, for pumping concrete.(when added to normal concrete with 75mm slump upto 250mm can be achieved)
6. High range water reducers :
PC based admixturesWater reduction capacity of about 25-40%High performanceEarly strength and early setting
7. Bonding agents :
To increase bond strength, old and new concrete(in repair and rehabilitation works), they are usually modified latex or polymer compounds
8. Corrosion inhibitors :To inhibit corrosion
Aggregate is the word used to describe any inert material . Usually rock derivative generally between 50mm down to
75 micron used to produce concrete . It is divided into coarse aggregate and fine aggregate Those which are 4.75mm to 50mm are classified as coarse
aggregates Those below 4.75mm to 75 micron as fine aggregates Except for mass concrete in dams etc. which may contain
upto 150mm size aggregate, the maximum size of aggregate is normally 20mm in most cases
But it may be 40mm for plain concrete or massive works.
28
AGGREGATES
29
Specific gravity: it should have good crushing strength and density
Surface texture: it should be smooth,slightly rough but not honeycombed
Particle shape : it should not be flaky or elongated.
Porosity : it should have very low water absorption
Should not be Reactive
PROPERTIES OF COARSE AGGREGATES
Water demand, Workability Cohesion of concrete in plastic state Strength, Density, Durability Porosity of hardened concrete Stability : it should be chemically inert. Impurities: it should be free from impurities
(like silt, clay) Compactness: it should be graded, as then
only the voids can be less.
30
PROPERTIES OF AGGREGATE EFFECT
Specific gravity implies the absolute weight per unit volume of aggregates
A low specific gravity may indicate high porosity poor durability low strength.
Specific gravity of aggregates is used in arriving at mix design
Generally the specific gravity of good aggregates is greater than 2.5 g/cm3
31
SPECIFIC GRAVITY
Surface texture reveals how grainy or smooth the surface of the aggregate is.
It indicates bonding strength and porosity. Higher the smoothness of the particle, lesser is
the bonding between aggregate and cement matrix.
rough textured aggregates develop higher bond strength than smooth textured aggregates,
This property is especially considered while producing high strength concretes.
32
SURFACE TEXTURE
Particle shapes are classified as Irregular Rounded Flaky Angular Aggregates should be as much cubical as
possible in shape
33
PARTICLE SHAPE
Grading of aggregates means particle size distribution of the aggregates.
Principle of grading is that smaller size particles fill up the voids left in larger size particles.

GRADING OF COARSE AGGREGATE
Indian standards divides the sand into four zones
zone-I to zone-IV based on the sieve analysis
Sand falling in zone-I is coarse and that falling in zone-IV is fine.
Sand falling in zone IV shall not be used for reinforced concrete work.
Fineness modulus for sand : ranges from 2.2 to 3.2, higher value indicates coarser grading

PERMISSIBLE LIMITS FOR SOLIDS IN WATER
FRESH CONCRETE Fresh concrete is a freshly mixed material
which can be moulded into any shape. Workability: is the ease with which fresh
concrete can be mixed, transported, placed and compacted in the moulds or forms
Apart from water-cement ratio the concrete has to be compacted well to get the required strength

TESTS ON FRESH CONCRETE
WORKABILITY 1. Slump Test 2. Compaction Factor Test 3. Flow Test. Yield Test
42
It is the science of the deformation and flow of materials and is concerned with relationships between stress, strain, rate of strain and time.
The term Rheology deals with the materials whose flow properties are more complicated than those of fluids (liquids or gases)
RHEOLOGY OF CONCRETE
Factors affecting workability: Water content Mix proportions Size of aggregates Shape of aggregates Surface texture of aggregate Grading of aggregate Use of admixture
43
Segregation: Segregation can be defined as the separation of
the constituent materials of concrete.Bleeding: Sometimes referred as water gain It’s a particular form of segregation
due to highly wet mix If water cement ratio is more than 0.7 Badly proportioned and insufficiently
mixed concrete
44
BLEEDING
45
While traversing from bottom to top Bleeding channels responsible for
permeability It may be interrupted by aggregates
(flaky) It may be interrupted by reinforcement Reduces bond between reinforcement,
aggregate and paste Remedy— re-vibration, delayed finishing
Cement – 3.15Coarse aggregate – 2.70Sand – 2.60Water – 1.00Fly ash– 2.15Silica Fume - 2.20
46
SPECIFIC GRAVITY
Compaction of concrete is the process adopted for expelling the entrapped air from the concrete.
The entrapped air in the form of voids reduces the strength of concrete.
For every 1% of entrapped air, the strength of concrete falls about 5% to 6%.
47
COMPACTION
Hand compaction Tamping Ramming : generally permitted for
unreinforced foundation concrete RCC should never be rammed Compaction by vibration: common
needle vibrator dia is 25mm to 40mm External vibrators Surface vibrators
48
METHODS OF COMPACTION
Contd…
When inserting a needle vibrator, allow it to penetrate the bottom of the layer as quickly as possible.
If it is done slowly, the upper part of the concrete will get compacted and prevent the air in the bottom layer from escaping.
The vibrator should be left in the concrete for about 10 sec. and then withdrawn slowly. If it is withdrawn fast, a hole will be left in the concrete.
49
PRECAUTIONS
Contd…
The vibrator should be inserted again at a distance of not more than 50 cm from its last position.
The vibrator should not be allowed to touch the face of the form work or the reinforcement to prevent the reinforcement from losing bond with concrete
Do not stop the vibrator when the needle is in the concrete.
Do not over vibrate or under vibrate
50
51
The rate of levelling should not be less than the rate placing of concrete
FINISHING OF CONCRETE
52
Effect of Water-Cement ratio Effect of maximum size of aggregate
on strength Grades of concrete: Concrete in construction is specified
by grade like M20,M25 etc. Usually increments of five.
M20 means the specified crushing strength is 20 N/mm2
STRENGTH OF CONCRETE
53
CURING Why Curing ? To prevent loss of moisture from the
Concrete due to combined effect of hot sun and drying wind
Creation of conditions for promotion of uninterrupted and progressive hydration of cement during the period immediately after placing
Curing does not mean only application of water
