Study on the Properties of Aerated Concrete Incorporating Fly Ash and Quarry Dust

Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 5

Abstract

The use of LWC (Lightweight concrete) has been a feature in the construction industry for centuries, but like other material the expectations of the performance have raised and now we are expecting a consistent, reliable material and predictable characteristics. The use of aluminum powder to make aerated concrete seems to be a viable option. This study deals with replacement of cement with fly ash and finding out an optimum ratio. This composition is then mixed with adequate aluminum powder to obtain an aerated concrete.
