Estimating the permeability of porous aggregate concretes …
This could be because the normalweight aggregate permeability is too low, and the cement paste and ITZ are mainly affected by the water-cement ratio. But for LWAC and PLWAC, there is a sudden increase from 0.38 to 0.28 w/c. It seems that at 0.28 w/c, the permeability of the cement paste and ITZ for lightweight concretes are very low, and the ...
