Lightweight cementitious composite has been used in construction for thousand years.
However, before the Second World War, lightweight concrete was mainly limited to non …

Lightweight ECC (LWECC) has been extensively concerned due to its superior tensile
performance, durability and low self-weight. However, the high environmental impact and …

Improving energy conservation of buildings and promoting wastes recycling contribute to
reducing CO 2 emissions. This work developed a green high-performance lightweight …

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) has high mechanical strengths and durability, but
its density and carbon footprint are usually high. This paper developed a lightweight UHPC …

The inferior mechanical properties and durability of conventional lightweight concrete restrict
its wider application. This study intended to design a novel lightweight ultra high …

On islands far away from the mainland, the raw materials for concrete production are often
more difficult to obtain. Converting the coral waste generated during the island construction …

The objective of present study is to utilize and study the reactivity and hydration behaviour of
thermo-mechanically activated waste concrete powder (WCP). For activation, the WCP was …

To reduce the dead load of concrete structures, this study developed a high performance
lightweight aggregate concrete (HPLAC) by combining the use of ultra high performance …

The highly dense structure which causes the risk of explosive spalling is one of the major
limitations of using ultra high-performance concrete (UHPC). This study developed a …
