A Comprehensive Self-Consolidating Concrete Dataset for Advanced Construction Practices

Size: over 2500 Self-consolidating concrete mixtures from 176 published papers.

Material type: Self-consolidating concrete (SCC).

Features:

Identification features (5 features): References, number of the mixture, the authors, year of publication, & the mixture code.

Powders type, content, & density (76 features): Cement, various supplementary cementitious materials, & other mineral additions.

Paste properties (8 features): The total amount of powder used, the water content, the calculated volume of the paste, the water-to-cement ratio, the water-to-binder ratio, the water-to-powder ratio, the volume of water to the volume of powder ratio, & the volume of water to the volume of cement ratio.

Aggregate properties (7 features): Content and density of fine and coarse aggregates, the total aggregate, the maximum size of the aggregate, & the fine-to-total-aggregate ratio.

Admixture properties (3 features): Quantity of admixture used, its proportion relative to the cement & the total binder content.

Properties:

Fresh properties (13 features): Including filling ability properties, i.e., slump flow spread, V-funnel flow time, & the T50 time; Passing ability properties, i.e., J-Ring flow spread, L-box H1/H2 ratio, & U-box flow; Segregation resistance i.e., sieve segregation index, column segregation index, dynamic segregation index, segregation factor, & sieve GTM stability test. Additionally, the percentage of air content is also documented.

Rheological properties (3 features): yield stress & plastic viscosity values alongside with the used rheometer. The instruments employed in these measurements include the ICAR Rheometer, R/S Plus Rheometer, ConTec5 Viscometer, ConTec4SCC, Concrete Shear Box, & TR-CRI Concrete Rheometer.

Application: Essential in choosing Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) mixtures for different uses, considering the importance of both fresh & rheological properties. Intended to support the creation of sustainable & eco-friendly building materials.
