Self-compacting concrete has high durability and workability due to an increased amount of limestone filler and fly ash while keeping the water content constant. It is used in densely reinforced concrete structures where vibration is difficult, as it can flow through congested reinforcement under its own mass without needing external consolidation. Various tests evaluate its passing ability, resistance to segregation, and filling capacity. Self-compacting concrete can fill any deeply reinforced space using only its own weight and has high durability without requiring excess water.

of limestone filler , fly ash etc.,while the water content is kept constant SCC is used in conditions where steel reinforcing is much closely spaced dense and congested and vibration is very difficult This type of concrete is highly flowable such that is distributed throughout the congested reinforcement by its own mass Methods Property Fillbox Passing ability GTM screen stability test Resistance to segregation J-ring Passing ability L-box Passing ability Orimet Filling ability Slump flow by Arbams cone Filling ability T 50cms slump flow Filling ability U-box Passing ability V-funnel Filling ability V-funnel at T5 minutes Resistance to segregation 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 15 Days 20 days Self compacting concrete or self compacting concrete can adjust in any deep reinforcment by its self weight with out any external forces
