PROPERTIES OF FRESH AND HARDENED SELF-COMPACTING CONCRETE CONTAINING SUPPLEMENTARY CEMENTITIOUS MATERIALS
This paper presents the properties of fresh and hardened self-compacting concrete (SCC) containing supplementary cementitious materials, such as complex sulphoaluminosilicate additive based on the metakaolin and gypsum, fly-ash and limestone microfiller. If sufficient gypsum is present the main hydration products in unclinker part is a thin crystals of ettringite. Ettringite is formed by a topochemical reaction in a closed space at the beginning of the formation of the cement matrix, which ensures the compaction of SCC.
