Experimental Investigation on Light Weight Concrete by using Natural and Artificial Light Weight Aggregates
Journal Title: International Journal of Trend in Scientific Research and Development - Year 2020, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
The changes of moisture content for the duration of drying are experimentally investigated in the current work. Particular emphasis is placed on the preliminary stage of drying of saturated concrete, when moisture contents are high, on account that the resistance of the fabric to numerous deterioration methods is reduced at high moisture content material levels, and experimental records for this stage of drying is lacking. The experimental investigation is carried out for concrete cylinders of one of a kind lengths with one give up uncovered to drying. In this way, moisture float is compelled to be unidirectional. The gravimetric approach is employed to gain moisture content distribution in the material at exceptional times of drying. The cylinders are made of lightweight concrete with varying water to cement ratios and moist curing times, and the influence of these variables upon the drying method is assessed. Higher preliminary water content and more speedy modifications of water content take place in light weight concrete with a greater w c ratio. An elevated moist curing period consequences in a minimize of drying fees during the drying process. M. Selvabharathi | Ms. N.
