Conclusions

The combined aggregate grading has a significant effect on the


flexural strength RCC.

A slight deviation from the recommended grading limits for


combined aggregate can cause greater reduction in flexural
strength.

The conventional V-
V-B apparatus was modified to measure wet
density of RCC. Using this apparatus, wet density can be
measured under the action vibration and static load.

Wet density of RCC depends on both water content and


cement content.

For a given cement content, there is optimum water content at


which maximum density can be achieved.

Since the surface finish of a road pavement is important, it is


necessary to achieve maximum compaction for this kind of
concrete.

Fly ash can be used to increase the wet density and


compactability of RCC thus leading to better surface finish.
Addition of fly ash (30%) will not affect the 28-
28-day strength
adversely.

The flexural strength of RCC depends not only on w/c,


w/c, but
also on cement content.

Based on the relationships obtained for flexural strength and


wet density, a mix design procedure for RCC was proposed.
Construction of RCCP

Mixing can be done in


Concrete mixing conventional batch
mixers (free fall type)

Transportation of RCC Dump truck


Placing of RCC Asphalt pavers

Vibratory steel drum rollers


Compaction of RCC
Pneumatic tire rollers

Compaction is undertaken using a single or double steel drum vibrating


roller. Initially two or three passes are made with the vibration equipment
switched off followed by about six to eight passes of roller with vibration
mode.. Pneumatic rolling is used for the final compaction
