Microstructure characterization of sustainable light weight concrete using trapped air additions.
Fracture and Structural Integrity, 2022 Light-weight aggregate and trapped air additions (TAD) affect concrete performance and lead to the production of light-weight concrete (LWC). In this research, fourteen mixes were designed to study the effects of TAD type and content and pozzolanic ...

The Compressive Strength of Light Weight Concrete
International Journal of Engineering Sciences, 2020 The compressive strength of lightweight concrete using palm kernel shell (pks) and periwinkle shell (pws) is reported. The strength as a function of aggregates ,age, and density were investigated. The strengths were measured at interval of 7-day for 28 days.

Replacement of Conventional Concrete by Light Weight Concrete
International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology, 2021 Abstract: Lightweight concrete (LWC) allows for larger spans, fewer piers, and longer bridge designs due to its lower weight and improved durability. Because superstructures with broader shoulders or additional lanes may be improved without requiring extensive work on the substructure, LWC is a particularly desirable construction material at the moment.
