description: The aim of the research is to develop engineered cementitious composite mixtures satisfying the self-compacting concrete requirements and to evaluate the hardened properties of self-compacted ECC mixtures. To enhance the concrete performance, PVA is used. The PVA improved some characteristics and properties of the concrete. Ten mixes with different Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) fiber contents (0.0, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5 and 5.0) have been prepared. Three cubes (100mm � 100mm � 100mm), three beams (100mm � 100mm � 500mm) and three cylinders (150mm diameter and 300mm height) have been cast for each mix and tested at the age of 7 and 28 days for compressive strength and at age of 28 days for splitting and flexural strength. The V-funnel, L-box and slump test also have been conducted to access the fresh properties like workability and flowability of the concrete. The results indicated the increase in the strength of the concrete and the formulas for predicting the compressive, splitting and flexural strength from PVA () has been developed. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
