Problem statement: For predicting workability and hardened properties of Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) no well known explicit formulation. Approach: Statistical models were carried out to model the influence of key mixture parameter (cement, water to powder ratio, fly ash and super ...

A fast and nondestructive method for measurement of compressive strength and water cement ratio (w/c), will be of great interest to the construction industry because compressive strength is one of the most important parameter in the structural design of concrete structures. Also, compressive strength is specified for building code compliance. In this paper, a study was conducted to apply a
