Based on the data given in Table 2, it can be concluded that in order to obtain lightweight concrete with EGA 0.5–1.0 and ECA 2–4, at least 67% of the sand volume should be replaced by the same volume of LWA. If a smaller amount of sand is replaced by LWA, the ...
The aggregate interlock mechanism has been thoroughly studied in the literature. However, the focus of most studies on aggregate interlock mechanism has been on the impact of the coarse aggregate size, or lightweight coarse aggregate utilization in comparison to normal weight aggregates [19], [20], [21].Research studies have shown that the increase in the …

The size of the input material, volume of material to be crushed and the desired discharge products are vital in choosing the right concrete crusher.
Factors to Consider When Choosing Lightweight Concrete. Purpose of Application: Structural vs. non-structural use.; Desired Properties: Strength, insulation, and workability requirements.; Cost: Materials like AAC …
Lightweight concrete (LWC) is a type of concrete that was originally developed to reduce the density by introducing voids in the conventional concrete. This was accomplished by introducing voids within the aggregates (using lightweight aggregates (LWA)), voids within the cement paste (cellular or ed concrete), removing the fine aggregates ...
This paper describes the production and performance characteristics of lightweight concrete (LWC) made from porous aggregates, such as expanded glass (EG), made from glass waste, and crushed expanded polystyrene waste (CEPW), obtained by crushing packaging waste from appliances and ordinary Portland cement (OPC). During the study, the LWC …
