Experimental investigation on the effect of cementitious materials on fresh and mechanical properties of self-consolidating concrete
Although applying self-consolidating concrete (SCC) in many modern structures is an inevitable fact, the high consumption of cement in its mixing designs has led to increased production costs and adverse environmental effects. In order to find economically viable sources with environmentally friendl...
