Investigating the Size Effect on the Compressive Strength of Self- Consolidating Concrete Containing Taftan Pumice and Micro-Silica

Self-compacting concrete is a special concrete that flows with its weight in the form and does not need to shake. based on experimental findings, its compressive strength decreases with an increase in the specimen size; this phenomenon is called “size effect and its beginning is a nonlinear failure...
