ABSTRACT
Self-consolidating concrete (SCC), which is also called self-compacting concrete, is a new technology that was made in Japan in the 1980s. Since then, the company's market share has grown fast due to the better quality of the concrete and the upgraded working environment. SCC is a type of concrete that flows easily, doesn't separate, and doesn't need mechanical consolidation to spread, fill the formwork, and cover the reinforcement. SCC can be compacted under its own weight because it flows easily. This lets it be used in difficult construction situations or sections with dense reinforcement. SCC can greatly reduce the amount of time it takes to place large sections of concrete by getting rid of the vibration process. This, in turn, helps reduce noise- and hearing-related injuries on the job site. SCC must be meticulously designed in order to achieve high flow ability and permeability while preserving sufficient stability to resist segregation. This article provides a thorough analysis of the benefits of compacting both fine and coarse recycled concrete. To reduce environmental consequences, the construction sector is requesting more modern methods. A Recycled Aggregate based Self Compacting Concrete (RASCC) is a new technology currently used in construction industries. In the concrete industry, recycled aggregates have global environmental advantages over natural materials and trash disposal. In recent years, the advantages of using RASCC have been increased which leads to research publications. Applying this method made the construction project highly creative and important for the environment and economic benefits of each material. The trials have demonstrated that this is possible in the development of both traditional and semi-modern structural elements as well as enormously complex and substantially reinforced parts that hinder the mechanisms of vibration and ultimately affect performance.
