Collapse of fresh foam concrete: Mechanisms and influencing parameters
This study assesses the influence of rheology and density on the collapse behaviour of mechanically foamed fresh aerated concrete. The collapse mechanism was studied under two conditions of varying interstitial paste's rheology and varying foam content ...

Fibre-Reinforced Foamed Concretes: A Review [PDF]
Foamed concrete (FC) is a high-quality building material with densities from 300 to 1850 kg/m3, which can have potential use in civil engineering, both as insulation from heat and sound, and for load-bearing structures. However, due to the nature of the cement material and its high porosity, FC is very weak in withstanding tensile loads; therefore, it ...
