Structural Lightweight Aggregate Concrete Performance
Also Known As:
The ACI SP-136:1993 standard is a compilation of twelve papers that provide an in-depth analysis of the performance of structural lightweight concrete. The papers cover a wide range of topics, from fundamental laboratory studies to case histories of concrete performance.
Some of the specific topics addressed in the standard include the use of high-strength lightweight aggregate concrete for Arctic applications, the advantages of using lightweight concrete in medium-rise buildings and post-tensioned parking garages, lightweight concrete bridges for the California highway system, and the durability of lightweight concrete and its connections with concrete composition, design, and construction methods.
Other papers discuss the influence of compressive stress on the permeability of concrete, the flexural behavior and ductility of high-strength lightweight concrete members under cyclic loading, the pore structure and carbonation of lightweight concrete after long-term exposure, and the fatigue strength and endurance limit of lightweight concrete.
