The Effect of Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate on the Mitigation of Liquefaction in Shaking Table
Geotechnical and Geological Engineering, 2020Non-conventional materials are often applied to dissipate the energy of dynamic loads and mitigate liquefaction. In this study, the effect of Lightweight Expanded Clay Aggregate (LECA) on the mitigation of liquefaction was examined using shaking table tests.

Influence of Expanded Clay Aggregates in Abrasion Resistance of Lightweight Concrete
SP-253: Fifth ACI/CANMET/IBRACON Int'l Conference on High-Performance Concrete Structures & Materials, 2008Durability is one of the key factors considered in the specification of concrete for most of its applications. When applied to industrial floors, road pavements, and sidewalks, abrasion wearing impairs the concrete performance. This work is focused on the abrasion resistance of lightweight concrete produced with expanded clay, comparing it to the ...

Tests on direct tensile characteristics of expanded clay lightweight aggregate concrete
Magazine of Concrete Research, 2016The tensile characteristics of lightweight aggregate concrete under direct tension were examined with a view to enhancing the utilisation of artificially expanded clay granules as secondary aggregates. Ready-mixed concrete specimens were classified into two groups: all-lightweight concrete (ALWC) and sand-lightweight concrete (SLWC).
