Non-autoclave ash-filled porous concrete for bearing and enclosing structures

Abstract

Non-autoclaved ash-porous concrete (NAAC), which is enlightened in the article facilitates the reduction of the cost of construction of large-space engineering structures and multi-storey buildings. It is possible due to eliminating the use of expensive porous aggregates, which involves using the porization effect of the concrete mixture in the manufacture of such structures, as well as using of waste from local industry. It also reveals the advantages of using cellular concrete of non-autoclaved hardening, which has a low energy consumption. Such material is showed to be of use in production of load-bearing and enclosing reinforced concrete structures.
