Self-Consolidating Concrete (SCC), also called self-compacting concrete, is a revolution in the field of concrete technology. SCC is a very fluid, high strength concrete that flows like water, compacts with little or no vibration, does not segregate, and is self-leveling. Products made with SCC have an excellent finish, and are virtually free of bug holes or honeycombing. Introduced to the concrete industry by the Japanese in the late 1980s, it is just now coming into its own in North America. This 1-hour interactive online course introduces the student to this new concrete product.

There is a multiple-choice quiz included at the end of this course.
