Properties of concrete made with three types of artificial PFA coarse aggregates

Physical Properties of Lightweight Aggregate Concrete

“…[34] Apart from the smaller restraining effect of the Aardelite particles (because of its lower modulus), the higher shrinkage of Aardelite concrete is probably due to the shrinkage of the Aardelite aggregate itself. Moreover, Aardelite also has a buffer water capacity even higher than that of Lytag, hence, at least in the early days of drying shrinkage, behavior similar to that of Lytag concrete can be expected.…”

“…Van der Wegen and Bijen [34] have tested the shrinkage and creep of lightweight aggregate concrete made with Aardelite and Lytag aggregates. Aardelite, unburned, and Lytag, burned, are fly ash aggregates.…”

“…Van der Wegen and Bijen [34] have tested creep deformation on the concrete made with the lightweight aggregates, Aardelite, and Lytag of the composition shown in Table 7.16. The creep was determined from 100 × 100 × 400 mm prisms.…”

Engineering properties and flexural performance of carbon nanofibers enhanced lightweight cementitious composite (CNF-LCC)

“…Similar results are obtained when CNF-LCC is compared with LWAC. Figure 5.7 shows that CNF-LCC exhibits comparable or lower specific creep than LWAC of similar strength measured by Best and Polivka (1959) and Van der Wegen and Bijen (1985). Lopez et al (2004) and Wendling et al (2018) MPa.…”
