he following proportions have been proposed for a Self-Compacting Concrete mix.

Water: Powder 0.95

Total powder content 750 kg/cu.m
Coarse aggregate content 32% of mix volume
Water content 180 kg/cu.m
Fine aggregate content 53% of net aggregate weight.

Is this an acceptable mix for SCC?

Yes

No

More information is required

The U-Tube test is used to measure?

Flowability

Segregation tendency

Self-compacting ability

Setting time
Which of the following test/tests checks for fluidity and deformity of SCC?

Slump cone test

Slump flow test

Funnel test

U Tube test

A concrete designed as SCC has the following results for slump flow test and funnel test
Slump flow test 685 mm
V Funnel test 18 sec
Is the concrete suitable for applications involving SCC?

Yes, but there might be a risk of segregation

No, the concrete is very viscous

Yes, with a risk for longer setting time

No. Funnel test value is higher than recommended

The L-box test measures?

Bleeding risk
 Resistance to segregation

Flowability

None
Which of the following test/tests give an idea of the passing ability of SCC?

V-funnel test

J-Ring test

Vibrating column test

Fill box test

In fibre reinforced concrete, if spacing is non-uniform it results in?

Balling

Separation

Lengthening

None

Roller compacted concrete has high workability for easy compaction by vibration.

True

False

Heavy concrete is used in ______________?

Bridges and piers

Nuclear reactors

Damns and water retaining structures

Railway sleepers
