Abstract Beam column joints have an important role in the structural integrity of the building. A high percentage of transverse hoop are recommended at these particular areas, which leads to the congested reinforcement at the joints. Some problems are arising when using conventional concrete in the form of cracks and voids in the interior of the joints. So the present research is going to find out the solution to solve the stability problems at the joints. In view of that, Self Compacting Concrete is one of the best solutions to solve the structural problems at the joints. In this experimental investigation M 25 and M 40 Grade Self compacting concrete properties are analyzed by comparing with conventional concrete. Model test specimens of interior beam column joints have prepared for each grade. These specimens are tested on the loading frame to analyze the carking pattern, load carrying capacity and maximum deflection produced at the joints. These properties are investigated for joints of both grades and results have been concluded.
