Refractory Performance Study on Foamed Concrete and Concrete

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013
Foam concrete is used in building energy saving and heat preservation project, and its refractory performance is very important to improve the fire resistance ability of the building. In this paper, fireproof property of the foamed concrete were studied.In the simulation fire conditions, compressive strength value of foamed concrete in different ...

Sorption characteristics of foam concrete

Cement and Concrete Research, 2007
Knowledge of sorption characteristics like absorption and sorptivity of building materials are of importance as they affect the durability and other properties. In the case of lightweight concrete like aerated and foam concrete, the moisture movement behaviour becomes more complex as such concretes contain much larger volume of air voids. This paper is

Durability of foamed concrete – freeze-thaw resistance of foamed concrete

Inżynieria i Budownictwo
Although foamed concrete was practically created about 100 years ago, there are no current standards for foamed concrete and test methods for determining its properties. Hence, while the assessment of mechanical properties can be found in the literature, the assessment of the durability of foamed concrete is rare and is most often carried out due to a ...

Shrinkage Behavior of Foam Concrete

Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 2009
In the absence of coarse aggregate, the relative influence of factors affecting the shrinkage of foam concrete are likely to be different as compared to normal concrete. This paper presents the shrinkage behavior of preformed foam concrete for the influences of basic parameters, viz, density, moisture content, composition like filler-cement ratio ...

Synthesis of Compound Foaming Agent of Lightweight Foamed Concrete

Advanced Materials Research, 2013
The foaming agent used in lightweight gypsum-based foam concrete was discussed. The effect of the single-doped foaming agent, codoped foaming agent and ternary foaming agent on the settling height, bleeding volume and defoaming time of fresh foam were investigated.

Properties of Foamed Concrete Using Polymer Based Foaming Admixture

Advanced Materials Research, 2015
In Korea, about 48% of all the residents live in apartment houses and about 58% in multi-family houses share the walls and floors with their adjacent households, exposing them directly to noises. Since residents show a stronger demand for the quality of life, the number of civil complaints and disputes on inter-floor noises is constantly increasing ...
