The Study of Mechanical Properties of Structural Lightweight Concrete

Article Preview

Abstract:

Many investigations have been conducted on compressive strength of lightweight aggregate concretes (LWAC), but there are few experimental studies on the relationship between compressive strength, bond strength and elastic modulus of LWAC. In this paper, the specimens of twenty kinds of LWACs with different mix proportions were made. Properties of compressive strength, bond strength and modulus of elasticity of the LWACs were tested. Based on the testing resulting, equations for relationship between bond strength and compressive strength of the LWAC were established. For LWAC modulus of elasticity, the experimental results of this study can fit well with predicted equation of ACI 318
