Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) – The Latest Emerging Technology in Co Self-Compacting_Concrete_(SCC)_–_The_Latest_Emergi | Page 4
SCC may be used in pre-cast applications or for concrete placed on site. It can be manufactured
in a site batching plant or in a Ready-Mix Concrete (RMC) plant & delivered to site by truck (TM-
Transit Mixture). It can then be placed either by pumping or pouring into horizontal or vertical
structures.
Case Study: SCC Concreting at Newtown Square, Sector 95A, Gurgaon
KPDK Buildtech has always attempted to adopt latest technologieswith regards to construction.
At “Newtown Square”, Gurgaon, we have done over 1000 cum SCC mainly consisting of deep
beams and slabs for the 3rd floor level transfer girder in our Newtown Square project in the past
one month & also have planned for another 500 cum SCC @ 5th floor level transfer girder.
Each planned pour SCC at the project site was done for approximately 500 m3, which was poured
continuously within 30 hours @ average speed of 16-18 m3/hr. This pace was maintained through
multiple pumps working simultaneously, and during this period, the KPDK project team had kept a
continuous monitoring on the quality, workability of SCC at site for an extended day/night vigil.
Team-KPDK has ensured all necessary and specific design & test verifications are being carried
out including slump tests , cube molding for on -site lab testing, post Rebound Hammer Testing
etc.as per Indian Standard:456 to maintain our quality records. Post concreting 28 – Day Strength
of 117% has been achieved!
