Abstract
Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) is an innovative concrete with a high
fluidity level, so it is able to flow into a cast by exploiting its weight, without
requiring compacting process by mechanical vibration or others. The same as
normal concrete, self compacting concerete (SCC) has some infirmities such as ;
it has small tensile, the ruination pattern is brittle, so it can fall out easily whene
there is a shock. By addition of polypropylene fiber is hoped that it can change
concrete ruination pattern more flexible. The purpose of this research is to analyze
the tensile strength of Self Compacting Concerete (SCC) by addition of kaolin 5%
dan polypropylene fiber 1%, 1,5% and 2% and also the effect of the age of the
concrete submerge 7, 14 and 28 days to the characteristic of Self Compacting
Concrete (SCC). Mix design of this research refers to the research of Anggarwal
(2008), that is the mixer of self compacting concrete (SCC4). The testing
substance uses silinder 15 cm x 30 xm in size with total numbers 27 with addition
of admixture superplasticizer Viscocrete 1003 with the same degree, that is 1% of
the weight of the kaolin and cement. The additional of kaolin and polypropylene
fiber to the fresh concrete testing has fulfilled the standard determined by
EFNARC (2002), except to the testing of J-Ring. From this research is known that
the value of the average of the tensile strength in the age of 7 days, 14 days, and
28 days continuously for the 1% of polypropylene fiber is 1,531 MPa, 1, 869
MPa, 1,646 MPa, and for the 1,5% of the polypropylene fiber is 1,713 MPa, 1,610
MPa, 2,092 MPa, and the last for the 2% of polypropylene is 1,847 MPa, 1,888
MPa, and 2,200 MPa. From the research has been done is gained the addition of
the most optimum fiber variation degree is 2% with the value of the tensile
strength is 2,200 MPa.
