What Is The Weight Of Lightweight Concrete

Lightweight Aggregate Concrete

This illustrative book explains the mechanisms responsible for the strength and durability properties of LWAC. Along with history and application, physical properties and chemical durability are described in detail including fire resistance and microstructure development. These definitions will particularly help architects and engineers in tailoring an appropriate concrete mix.

Advances in Building Technology

This set of proceedings is based on the International Conference on Advances in Building Technology in Hong Kong on 4-6 December 2002. The two volumes of proceedings contain 9 invited keynote papers, 72 papers delivered by 11 teams , and 133 contributed papers from over 20 countries around the world. The papers cover a wide spectrum of topics across the three technology sub-themes of structures and construction, environment, and information technology. The variety within these categories spans a width of topics, and these proceedings provide readers with a good general overview of recent advances in building research.
