Effect of Unit Binder Content on Mechanical Properties of Foamed Concrete

Abstract:

The present study tested six concrete mixes to develop a high-performance foamed concrete without using high-pressure steam curing processes, as an alternative to autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) blocks. Dry density, compressive strength and thermal conductivity of foamed concrete were measured according to the variation of unit binder content. Test result showed that dry denstiy, compressive strength and thermal conductivity of foamed concrete incresed with the increase in the unit binder content. The compressive strength of tested foamed concrete was commonly higher than that of conventional foamed concrete with the same dry density.
