   Self-Consolidating Concrete ($\text{SCC}$)
   $\text{SCC}$ is a highly flowable, non-segregating concrete that spreads into place, fills formwork, and encapsulates reinforcement without mechanical vibration. Its fluidity is achieved through a high volume of fines (cement and supplementary cementitious materials) and the use of high-range water reducers ([superplasticizers](/entries/superplastic…

2. Concrete Production

   Linked via "supplementary cementitious materials"

   Environmental and Sustainability Considerations
   The production of Portland cement is responsible for approximately $8\%$ of global anthropogenic carbon dioxide ($\text{CO}_2$) emissions, primarily from the decarboxylation of limestone during clinker production. Research efforts are focused on reducing this impact through supplementary cementitious materials ($\text{SCMs}$) and novel binders.
