    good question

    we can say

    self compacting concrete SCC :is characterized by a low yield, high deformability, and moderate viscosity
    which flows under its own weight and does not require any external vibration for compaction suitable to be used for casting heavily reinforced sections


    high performance concrete hpc is concrete meets special combinations of performance and uniformity un expected from ordinary concrete

    How is RCC different from HPC then both have reinforcements to suit the needs right
