Certain Exploration on Light Weight Concrete by Using Pumice Aggregate

Abstract

The challenge observe with the special concrete including light weight concrete by using the use of pumice aggregate (natural aggregate)[3].One of the negative aspects of traditional concrete having high self-weight. This heavy self-weight will make it to some extent an uneconomical structural material [2]. Light weight concrete having low density, discount of lifeless load and to boom the thermal insulation[4]. The reduction in density produced by using it as an alternative of coarse mixture partly in concrete[6]. In this Study an strive has been made to examine the traditional concrete and light weight aggregate concrete the usage of mix M30 with poly carboxyl ether admixture [3]. Light weight concrete is made by means of Partial substitute of Coarse Aggregate with one-of-a-kind ratios of Pumice ranging from 20%, 50%, 80% and 100%[7]. This challenge is centered to decide the compression electricity and cut up tensile power parameters of mild weight mixture concrete to discover the favorable replacement with the above cited replacements. The outcomes are compared with conventional concrete[8].
