Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a type of concrete that is able to flow and fill the formwork or moulds under its own weight, without the need for mechanical vibration. This is achieved through a combination of high workability and viscosity, which allows the concrete to flow smoothly and evenly into all corners and voids of the formwork. There are several […]
Pumpable foam concrete is a type of foam concrete that is specifically designed to be pumped from a mixer to the site of use. It is a lightweight, low-density material that is made by mixing a cementitious binder, such as Portland cement, with a foam agent and water. The purpose of pumpable foam concrete is to provide a lightweight and […]
Self-leveling foam concrete is a type of foam concrete that is specially formulated to have a low viscosity and high flowability, allowing it to self-level and spread evenly over a surface without the need for manual spreading or troweling. It is made by mixing a cementitious binder, such as Portland cement, with a foam agent, such as a liquid soap, […]
Rapid-setting foam concrete, also known as fast-setting foam concrete, is a type of foam concrete that sets and hardens quickly, typically within 1-2 hours after mixing. It is made by mixing a cementitious binder, such as Portland cement, with a foam agent, such as a liquid soap, and water. The foam agent creates bubbles in the mixture, which result in […]
Medium-density foam concrete is a type of foam concrete that has a density ranging from 800 kg/m3 to 1,200 kg/m3. It is a lightweight and insulating building material that is made by mixing a cementitious binder, such as Portland cement or fly ash, with a foam agent, such as a liquid soap, and water. The foam agent creates bubbles in […]
Low-density foam concrete is a type of foam concrete that has a density of less than 800 kg/m3. It is a lightweight and insulating building material that is made by mixing a cementitious binder, such as Portland cement or fly ash, with a foam agent, such as a liquid soap, and water. The foam agent creates bubbles in the mixture, […]
Foam concrete, also known as cellular lightweight concrete (CLC), is a lightweight and insulating building material that is made by mixing a cementitious binder, such as Portland cement or fly ash, with a foam agent, such as a liquid soap, and water. The foam agent creates bubbles in the mixture, which result in a lightweight and highly porous material. There […]
Aerated concrete, also known as autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC), is a lightweight and high-insulating building material that is made by mixing a binder material, such as cement or lime, with finely ground sand, water, and a small amount of aluminum powder. This mixture is then poured into molds, where the aluminum powder reacts with the water and produces hydrogen gas, […]
No-fines concrete is a type of concrete that is made without using any fine aggregate, such as sand. Instead, the mixture consists of only coarse aggregate, such as gravel or crushed stone, mixed with cement and water. The resulting concrete mixture has a porous structure, with large voids between the coarse aggregate particles. The purpose of no-fines concrete is to […]
Foam concrete, also known as foamed concrete or cellular lightweight concrete (CLC), is a type of lightweight concrete that is made by mixing cement, sand, water, and a foaming agent. The foaming agent produces air bubbles in the mixture, creating a material with a low density and high flowability. Foam concrete is often used in applications where a lightweight material […]
