Classification & Advantages of Light Weight Concrete
The concrete whose density is lower than normal concrete (2200 kg/m3 or 140 lb/ft3 ) is known as lightweight concrete. It includes an expanding agent in it to increases the volume of the mixture while giving additional qualities. It is lighter than conventional concrete (Dry Density 300 kg/m3 up to 1840 kg/m3). In place density of 90 to 115 lb/ft3 compared to the
