Combined effect of silica fume and expanded vermiculite on properties of lightweight mortars at ambient and elevated temperatures (2015, background): “Lightweight concretes present superior properties such as, thermal isolation [5–7], fire/high temperature resistance and so protection [8–13], sound insolation [14–19], strength enough for structural applications and reducing dead load of structure resulting in a decreased cross sections of structur”
Proportioning and characterization of lightweight concrete mixtures made with rigid polyurethane foam wastes (2008, unknown): “This decrease is due to the important porosity of lightweight aggregates [21,34,35].”
