Abstract
Considering the economy and the durability of our present concrete structures, the quality and the density of the concrete cover, as well as the compaction of the concrete are main parameters. For this, Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC) offers new possibilities and prospects. As a result of the mix design, some properties of the hardened concrete can be different for SCC in comparison to normal vibrated concrete (NC). Therefore, it is important to verify the mechanical properties of SCC before using it for practical applications, especially if the present design rules are applicable or if they need some modifications, The following paper reports on a research project on the time development of the material properties and the bond behaviour between the reinforcing bars and the self-compacting concrete as basis for the description of the load bearing capacity of reinforced concrete structures.
