The main binding ingredient of concrete that is ordinary Portland cement is a major contributor to global warming. The cement industry is the second-largest producer of greenhouse gas. The total world production of cement is expected to be around 4800 Mt by 2030, which indicates the like impact on global warming indicates. In this regard, Utilization of industrial by-products from various industries as a supplementary cementitious material in concrete along with cement has been well recognized for its enhanced properties and potential to reduce environmental impacts. Most of the works on Granite powder based Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) reveals that hardening is due to heat curing. Recent studies on the various properties of heat-cured have shown its suitability for applications such as precast concrete members. The heat curing process requires special arrangements, which is energy consuming and may not be feasible to apply in cast-in-situ concreting. Therefore, the development of self-compacting concrete suitable for curing at ambient temperature will widen its application to concrete structures. |
