Self Compacting Concrete

<  Back

Firth Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) is a concrete that flows into place under its own weight. It does not require mechanical compaction - and thus saves time, labour, equipment requirements and formwork damage.

  • a highly deformable but viscous concrete
  • ideal for congested steel or difficult formwork shapes, or where access is difficult
  • correctly proportioned, SCC will flow up to 10 metres on a minimal slope
  • reduces time, labour and noise (with no compaction required)
  • provides an excellent finish
  • manufactured on a project by project basis
