Experiments were performed in the structural laboratory of University of South Australia. 2.1 Materials. The mix design of the reference lightweight concrete (LWC) was carried out and the concrete mixing procedures followed AS 1012.2 [].Crumb rubber mix were used to partially replace raw concrete materials (sum of cement, sand, …
The intrinsic nature of lightweight concrete is to produce a material which, in addition to having high strength, can also have high performance in severe service conditions. The reason for high performance is examined in light of physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of the vesicular aggregate used to produce lightweight concrete.
This CIP focuses on structural lightweight concrete. The primary use of structural lightweight concrete is to reduce the dead load of a concrete structure, which then allows the structural designer to reduce the size of columns, footings and other load bearing elements. Structural lightweight concrete mixtures can be designed to achieve similar ...
Sandwich panels comprising prefabricated ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC) composites can be used as eco-friendly and multi-functional structural elements. To improve the structural and thermal performance of composite sandwich panels, combinations of UHPC and expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads were …
of using high performance lightweight concrete (HPLC) pre-tensioned bridge girders and deck panels. With normalweight con-crete, high strength or high performance is ordinarily defined as concrete with strengths ranging from 8000 to 12,000 psi. In lightweight concrete, high performance may more often refer to strengths greater than or equal to ...
To reduce the dead load of concrete structures, this study developed a high performance lightweight aggregate concrete (HPLAC) by combining the use of ultra high performance cementitious composite (UHPC) and different types of aluminosilicate lightweight aggregates (LWAs).
