Frost influence on the ultrasonic pulse velocity in concrete at early phases of hydration process
Quite often concrete strength parameters have to be determined at an early age. Due to the strong correlation existing between the mechanical and acoustic properties of concrete, ultrasonic devices can be used for this purpose.

Presently there is increasing attention in utilization foamcrete as a lightweight non-structural and semi-structural element in buildings to take advantage of its excellent insulation properties. Though, foamcrete has been noticed to have some disadvantages: considerable brittleness; results in low compressive and flexural strength, poor fracture ...
