Abstract

This study aims to apply the response surface methodology (RSM) to develop a statistical model that predicts and models the performance of both the fresh and hardened properties of self-compacting concrete (SCC). RSM was used to model processes involving three variables: the water/binder ratio, and the percentages of waste marble, and glass powder. Tests, including slump flow diameter, sieve stability, and L-box, were carried out to evaluate the fresh properties of the self-compacting concrete; compressive strength was analyzed at 7, 28, and 90 days. Statistical significance was only observed in the water/binder ratio for both the slump flow and sieve stability tests. Furthermore, these results indicate that the models used in the compressive strength tests demonstrate a high statistical significance for all ages. The findings suggest that incorporating waste marble powder (MP) and glass powder (GP) in SCC necessitates a significant amount of superplasticizer to counteract the workability loss, and it improves the compressive strength of SCC. The coefficients analyzed using the RSM approach validate its effectiveness as a predictive tool for determining the hardened properties of self-compacting concrete.
