The project is focusing on developing a silica breccia product having a superior reactivity that allows this product to be used widely as an alternative supplementary cementing material in cement mixtures. The new developed silica breccia product will be tested for effectiveness as a supplementary cementing material based on the Canadian Standard Association (CSA) test […]

The proposed project will focus on the development of low-cost, self-consolidating concrete (SCC) mixtures containing a high volume of silica breccia. The workability, fresh properties and local unit cost of SCC containing 0-70% silica breccia (as a partial replacement for cement) will be investigated and compared with the control mixture and with other SCC mixtures […]
