Self-Compacting Concrete
Highly flowable concrete that fills formwork under its own weight - no vibration needed
Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a highly specialized concrete mix that flows easily and fills formwork completely under its own weight, without requiring mechanical vibration. This advanced material provides exceptional surface finishes and is ideal for complex architectural applications and heavily reinforced sections.
The high flowability of SCC allows it to pass through dense reinforcement and reach confined spaces that would be difficult or impossible to fill with conventional concrete. This results in superior surface finishes, eliminates honeycombing, and significantly reduces labor costs associated with vibration.
Why Choose Self-Compacting Concrete?
- No vibration required - Eliminates need for mechanical vibration
- Perfect for complex formwork - Flows into intricate shapes and details
- Excellent surface finish - Smooth, uniform surfaces without blemishes
- Ideal for heavily reinforced sections - Passes through dense rebar easily
- Reduced labor costs - Faster placement, less manual work
- Quieter construction site - No noisy vibrators needed
Self-compacting concrete is particularly valuable for architectural concrete, precast elements, and projects where surface quality is paramount. Contact us to discuss whether SCC is suitable for your application.
Self-Compacting Concrete FAQ's
Yes, SCC typically costs 10-20% more than conventional concrete due to additional admixtures. However, labor savings and improved quality often justify the additional cost.
SCC uses a combination of high powder content, special admixtures (superplasticizers), and carefully selected aggregates to achieve high flowability while maintaining stability.
