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.

Experimental Analysis of Light Weight Concrete
International Journal of Advances in Scientific Research and Engineering, 2018 Background/Objectives: Lightweight concrete is widely accepted due to its low density. LECA is an artificial lightweight aggregate made of clay having very low specific gravity. It is possible to develop lightweight concrete using LECA with a dry density of 1200 kg/m3 up to 1450 kg/m3.

Steel Fibre Reinforced Light weight Aggregate Concrete
International Journal of Recent Technology and Engineering (IJRTE), 2020 Paper From the past studies on Steel fibre reinforced concrete, it has been established that the performance of concrete can be enhanced by incorporating fibres from waste materials from the commercial benefit and environmental aspect.. Reinforcing concrete with steel fibres (SFRC) increases the tensile strength of concrete thereby improving its ...
