Properties of Artificial Lightweight Aggregates from Various Pozzolan Materials – A Review [PDF]
The use of lightweight aggregate can bring advantages to the construction field. Lightweight aggregate has been used due to its lower density and can reduce the dead load applied to the structural elements. Due to the number of natural resources, such as

Structural Lightweight Concrete Containing Recycled Lightweight Concrete Aggregate
In this paper, Structural Lightweight Concrete (SLC) containing Recycled Lightweight Aggregate (RLA) is described. Damaged lightweight concrete was used as RLA by crushing it into fine particles, and used to replace fine limestone aggregate of up to 45% by weight.
