Abstract

The self compacting concrete is the concrete that flow through the formwork and compaction
of this concrete is done in the concrete itself. The compaction of SCC done by the weight of
the concrete itself.In this investigation there is the use of Metakaoline and Rice husk ash and
it is found to be very useful in the modification of the properties of concrete. In this
investigation there is a use of many materials such as fine aggregates, coarse aggregates,
cement, metakaoline, rice husk ash and these materials were tested for their physical
properties. The Objectives of this investigation is to find out that what is the effect of MK and
RHA in the self compacting concrete and how the speed of construction can be increased by
using SCC.
