This study was conducted to examine the workability of LEFC in relation to the types and the mix ratio of different foaming agents. The foam agents act as lightweight aggregates in the concrete matrix and provide an alternative to obtaining the adequate strength level for the foam concrete. The results of the test showed that the synthetic foam agents were able to act properly as replacements for the lightweight aggregates.
This study was conducted examine the mechanical properties of LEFC in relation to the type of light weight aggregate and replacement ratio. For the specimen, different replacement ratio was used for recycled waste ALC and the bottom ash light weight aggregate respectively. The tests revealed that 60% of the waste ALC light weight aggregate is suitable for securing the optimal strength and light weight of the LEFC.
