ABSTRACT

It has been widely accepted that in concrete industry different techn iq ue have been adopted for the best performance of concrete and these techniques are widely y used in modern period of the construction industry. considerable research has been carried out to reduce the burden over the concrete for being most abundant building material used, for this several types of concrete have been introduced depending upon their qualities and usage. self-compacting concrete is one of the types of the concrete. This type of concrete settles/ compacts in the formwork  under  its self-weight  without
compaction effort. It is able to fill reinforcement spaces and voids. Furthermore, it is added that by adopting various techniques in sec many by products such as various minerals, industrial and agricultural by-products/minerals have been used in order to
reduce the cost also. In order to address the brittle behaviour of concrete, fibers are used. this experimental study is also based  on to investigate the use of Beverage Bottles as a fibre in SCC. In this study fibres of 3mm to 5mm width and 25mm and 12mm length have been utilized by cutting the soft drink bottles as 0.1%, .0.2%, 0.3%,  0.4%  and  0.5%  of ·the  concrete. the  fresh  and  hardened  parameters  of Conventional SCC and Fibre Reinforced  SCC were analyzed during this study. In fresh parameters (slump flow test, slump flow time Tsocm, V-funnel, J-Ring and L­ Box  tests  were  perform ed. In hardened  state  Compressive  strength  and  tensile strength were checked at 28 days curing and also other parameter of unit weight was also checked. The results showed that all the fresh properties are within the range of standard valued  of SCC as per EFNARC  2002 and the hardened  properties  are enhanced.
