Roller compacted concrete contains the same raw materials or, say, ingredients that are present in conventional concrete. But their proportion is different from conventional concrete. In addition to cement, fine aggregates, coarse aggregates, and water fly ash are also added as a partial replacement to Portland cement.
ENGINEERING PROPERTIES OF ROLLER-COMPACTED CONCRETE. An investigation was conducted to develop a procedure for the design of roller-compacted concrete (RCC) pavements. This paper is a report on the laboratory portion of the investigation that was conducted to determine the engineering properties of RCC.
1. Roller compaction densifies the powder or particle which can adversely affects the dissolution of product. 2. The powder to be compacted must be compressible or have to add compressible excipients or additives to the formulation. 3. The various process parameters involved in roller compaction process and its interrelation are given in figure.
Roller compacted concrete (RCC) was originally limited to the sub-base of roads and airfield pavements, being called lean concrete or dry lean concrete. This type of concrete has become very popular due to the fact that it is a simple material to produce and because it can be placed fast while producing a great surface.
Roller compacted concrete was first used in the 1930s and 1940s for construction of dams, while the first application in the field of roads was recorded in the 1970s. In the last ten years, roller compacted concrete has been primarily used for military purposes, industrial carts, in the construction of ports, but also in commercial

The military applications of roller compacted concrete (RCC) pavements is of recent origin too. The oldest large scale applications of RCC pavements were about 25 years ago at Fort Hood. During 1988, over 400,000 square yards of RCC pavement was constructed for the hardstand facility at Fort Drum. The early military RCC pavement
Roller compacted concrete is a mixture of cement with or without supplementary cementing materials, aggregates and water. Water content is low than freshly mixed, this concrete looks like damp gravel and it is a zero slump concrete. For bonding between two layers, segregation must be prevented. Why roller compacted concrete is preferred:

Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) as an economical, fast construction and sustainable materials has attracted increasing attention for pavement construction. The growth of roller-compacted concrete pavement used in different regions is impeded by concerns regarding
Roller Compacted Concrete (RCC) is non-reinforced concrete pavement that is placed with a high-density paver and then compacted with vibratory rollers. This placement method is possible due to RCC's no slump concrete mix design. RCC does not require any forms, hand finishing or reinforcement. Main Benefits of RCC. Fast construction.
Recent progress in dry granulation. Dry granulation could be achieved either by roller compaction or by slugging. The two different types are illustrated in the schematic diagram Fig. 2.There has not been much progress in the dry granulation technique and technology in comparison to wet granulation, except for one important innovation known as pneumatic dry …
Roller-compacted concrete mix design compaction concrete pavement: Abstract: Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) is increasingly becoming an alternative pavement type because of its construction expediency, reductions in material and construction costs, sustainability benefits, and overall structural capacity.

Our steps are manufactured using the highest quility materials aggregates and cement available in an effort to produce precast concrete steps and step products that will stand the test of time.
Roller Compacted Concrete pavement is best described as a zero slump concrete that is placed with standard or high-density paving equipment and consolidated/compacted using steel-drum or rubber-tired rollers to achieve a durable, wear resistant surface. Roller-Compacted Concrete pavements were first used in the 1970's for stabilization of ...
The RCC Pavement Council is a volunteer industry trade association representing the interest of those involved with the construction of Roller Compacted Concrete Pavements. The RCC Pavement Council supports Research and Promotion to improve the quality of RCC pavements and expand their use in a responsible and sustainable manner.

Vibratory plate and spiked or pad roller compactors (at right) can be attached to tracked excavators to provide mechanical compaction of trench backfill, mostly for buried utilities. These trenches are not usually compacted in 6 to 8 inch lifts, so can settle noticeably.
It is observed that static and roller compacted soil SE samples exhibit closer UCS. However, Roller compacted samples have slightly higher UCS compared to statically compacted soil samples. This trend is similar at different lime content used in this study. Soil-SR. A similar trend was observed for soil-SR as shown in Figs. 9 and 10.

RCC is cast layer by layer (a casting time interval for each layer of 2 − 4 d is needed
Roller-compacted concrete has the same basic ingredient as conventional concrete: cement, water, and aggregates, such as gravel or crushed stone. But unlike conventional concrete, it's a drier mix stiff enough to be compacted by vibratory rollers.Typically, RCC is constructed without joints.It needs neither forms nor finishing, nor does it contain dowels or steel reinforcing.
