  2. Engineered cementitious composite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineered_cementitious...

    Compared to other lightweight concretes, lightweight ECC has superior ductility. Applications include floating homes, barges, and canoes. ‘Self compacting concrete’ refers to a concrete that can flow under its own weight. For instance, a self-compacting material would be able to fill a mold containing elaborate pre-positioned steel ...

  3. Expanded polystyrene concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expanded_polystyrene_concrete

    It is created by using small lightweight EPS balls (sometimes called Styrofoam) as an aggregate instead of the crushed stone that is used in regular concrete. [3] It is not as strong as stone-based concrete mixes, but has other advantages such as increased thermal and sound insulation properties, easy shaping and ability to be formed by hand ...

  4. Waste light concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waste_light_concrete

    Waste light concrete (WLC) is a type of lightweight concrete where the traditional construction aggregates are replaced by a mix of shredded waste materials [1] (thermoplastics, thermosetting plastics, glass, tires, incinerator bottom ash, solid agricultural waste etc.) and a special group of additives. Used in infrastructure and building ...

  5. Autoclaved aerated concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoclaved_aerated_concrete

    Autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) is a lightweight, prefabricated concrete building material. Developed initially in the mid-1920s, it has expanded into widespread use. [citation needed] It is most suitable for producing a lightweight or most cost-effective alternative to traditional concrete blocks and clay bricks. [1]

  6. Types of concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_concrete

    Aerated concrete produced by the addition of an air-entraining agent to the concrete (or a lightweight aggregate such as expanded clay aggregate or cork granules and vermiculite) is sometimes called cellular concrete, lightweight aerated concrete, variable density concrete, Foam Concrete and lightweight or ultra-lightweight concrete, [18] [19 ...

  7. Self-consolidating concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-consolidating_concrete

    Self-consolidating concrete or self-compacting concrete (SCC) [1] is a concrete mix which has a low yield stress, high deformability, good segregation resistance (prevents separation of particles in the mix), and moderate viscosity (necessary to ensure uniform suspension of solid particles during transportation, placement (without external compaction), and thereafter until the concrete sets).

  8. Gypsum concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gypsum_concrete

    Gypsum concrete is lightweight and fire-resistant. A 1.5-inch slab of gypsum concrete weighs 13 pounds per square foot versus 18 pounds per square foot for regular concrete. [10] Even though gypsum concrete weighs less, it still has the same compressive strength as regular concrete, based on its application as underlayment or top coat flooring ...

  9. Foam concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foam_concrete

    Foam concrete compounds utilising fly ash in the slurry mix is cheaper still, and has less environmental impact. Foam concrete is produced in a variety of densities from 200 kg/m 3 to 1,600 kg/m 3 depending on the application. [1] Lighter density products may be cut into different sizes.
