Volume : II, Issue : IV, May - 2012 Experimental Investigation of Use of Microsilica in Self Compacting Concrete R.V.R.K. Prasad and Ashok P. Kalbande DOI : 10.9780/22307850, Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : This paper is described Project in detail and presents laboratory observation. Microsilica is used as a
10% replacement of cement by weight. Various test were conducted on fine aggregate & coarse aggregate,
to determine specific gravity, bulk density, fineness modulus of aggregate, concrete mix proportion design
using this parameter..For conventional concrete water cement ratio of 0.4 and for microsilica concrete is
increased water contain about 20liter/m3. Water demand increases in proportion to the amount of
microsilica added. Mixing the concrete and various test are conducted on fresh concrete i.e. Slump flow, VFunnel,
L-Box, U-Box and result are obtained. Using this concrete cube specimen are cast for testing different
hardened properties of concrete. i.e. 3 Days, 7 Days, 14 Days, 28 Days Compressive strength of concrete. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : R.V.R.K. Prasad and Ashok P. Kalbande, (2012).
