Fresh Properties of Rubberized Self-Consolidating Concrete

The project focuses on the development of SCRC mixtures using concrete materials available in Newfoundland. The developed SCRC mixtures can be successfully used by concrete suppliers in Newfoundland, especially for the construction of marine and offshore structures, which are exposed to ice abrasion and impact loading from ships, waves, and icebergs. In addition, this kind of concrete, where it is durable in freezing and thawing, can be used effectively in cold regions. The partner organization will benefit from the data-based analysis conducted in this study to develop successful SCRC mixtures with a promising potential for structural applications, particularly in seismic zones and cold regions.
