In this study the effects of the replacement levels 0, 30% and 60% of POFA having variable w/b ratios on fresh and hardened state properties of SCC have been evaluated. It has been found that higher replacement of ordinary Portland cement by POFA resulted in lower workability of the SCC. However, the values obtained for all the workability tests are found to be satisfactory in terms of self-compaction. Although the application of POFA had a positive response in developing compressive strength, reduction in strength has been shown to occur in concrete with higher volume replacement of POFA; the values however, being within the suitable limits for structural applications. A similar trend like that of compressive strength has been observed for the tensile and flexural strengths of SCC specimens. A good relationship in strength values has been also found out in all mixes of SCC containing POFA. Time dependent behavior including durability aspects has been put forward as recommendation for future investigation as to explore the potential benefit of high volume POFA in SCC.
