Abstract |
|
The usage of Cellular Light-weight Concrete gives a prospective solution to building construction industry. In this paper, an attempt is made to study on cellular lightweight concrete, and recommend as it can be used in construction industry. Lightweight foamed concrete is recently acceptable for use in low strength capacity for building and civil construction purposes as a result of its peculiar features such as low thermal conductivity, low self-weight and self-compacting features hence its high workability. It does not contain coarse aggregate and can be regarded as an aerated mortar. The main objective of this work is to study the Compressive strength and Split tensile strength of the concrete by various combinations of fine aggregate, fly ash and foam at the ages of 7 and 28 days. |
