Behavior of self-compacting concrete incorporating recycle materials at high temperature

The use of Palm Oil Fuel Ash (POFA) only has a limitation of segregation when added up to 15% in concrete, whereby the Pulverized Burnt Clay (PBC) was found to increase the segregation resistance as it acts as viscosity modifying agent. The finer pore pressure distribution along with the poor pore c...

description The use of Palm Oil Fuel Ash (POFA) only has a limitation of segregation when added up to 15% in concrete, whereby the Pulverized Burnt Clay (PBC) was found to increase the segregation resistance as it acts as viscosity modifying agent. The finer pore pressure distribution along with the poor pore connectivity that Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) exhibits keeps the free and chemically bound water trapped inside the structure leading to a growth in pore pressure. The buildup pressure resulted in the explosive spalling of the concrete particularly at W/B ranging between 0.30 to 0.35 at 30% of blended POFA and PBC.
