Effects of lightweight aggregates in self-consolidating concrete.

摘要

Self consolidating concrete is being implemented more and more in civil engineering applications because of its ability to flow under its own weight through heavy reinforcement without the use of vibrations. This study focuses on the flow rates of lightweight aggregates and structural lightweight self consolidating concrete. The effects of lightweight aggregates are compared to normal aggregates. The compressive strengths and weights of all the concrete are also compared along with the flow rates.
