THE USE OF A VOLCANIC MATERIAL AS FILLER IN SELF-COMPACTING CONCRETE PRODUCTION FOR LOWER STRENGTH APPLICATIONS

The use of a volcanic material as filler in self-compacting concrete production for lower strength applications

This study evaluates the use of large amounts of fine powders (fillers) derived from a Colombian volcanic material into the production of self-compacting concrete (SCC) for lower strength applications.The Breadmakers effects on SCC properties were studied with the incorporation of up to 50% of volcanic material of Tolima (MVT) as a partial substitu
