Creep of lightweight concrete

Magazine of Concrete Research, 1959
Summary Creep data covering periods of up to 18 months for concretes made with expanded-shale aggregates and having compressive strengths of 3,000 and 5,000 lb/in2 at 28 days are reported. These are compared with data for sand-gravel concretes of comparable strength.

Development of sustainable lightweight concrete using fly ash cenosphere and sintered fly ash aggregate

Construction and Building Materials, 2019
The present research work explores the use of fly ash cenosphere (FAC) and sintered fly ash aggregate (SFA) as replacements of natural fine aggregate (NFA) and natural coarse aggregate (NCA), respectively, for development of sustainable structural ...

Structural lightweight aggregate concrete with reduced density— lightweight aggregate foamed concrete

International Journal of Cement Composites and Lightweight Concrete, 1980
In order to reduce the density of concrete for load bearing and stiffening structural members and to improve the thermal insulation properties and thus extend the scope of application for structural lightweight concrete, closed-texture lightweight concretes are required which, while possessing adequate compressive strength, have densities of less than ...
