This experimental study is focused on the performance of appropriate grout/mortar for pre-placed aggregate concrete (PAC) incorporating superplasticizer in the mortar mixture regarding the flowability and strength of grout or mortar. Twenty-one samples of specimens were prepared. The parameter tests consist of water-cement ratios, cement sand ratios and variation dosages of superplasticizer. To examine the flowability/fluidity of grout or mortar, the flow cone test was applied. The flow cone test result indicated that there were three proportional grout that can meet the requirement for fluidity according to ASTM C-939. The compressive strength of specimens was tested. It was concluded that the composition of grout with containing the percentage of 0.7% by weight of cement of superplasticizer as chemical admixtures at a water-cement ratio of 0.6 and a cement-sand ratio of 0.5 is the proper composition of grout for pre-placed aggregate concrete (PAC).
