Development of cement-based lightweight composites : part 1: mix design methodology and hardened properties (2013, methodology): “to presoak the LWA in water for a certain period, usually 30 min to 1 h [1,22], or to add extra water which is calculated normally based on the 1 h water absorption [13].”
Utilization of oil palm kernel shell as lightweight aggregate in concrete - a review (2013, methodology): “different types of LWA such as clinker, foamed slag, and expanded clay has been used as construction material [1].”
Ultra-lightweight concrete: Conceptual design and performance evaluation (2015, methodology): “This is in line with the authors’ previous study [19] and also with [1].”
Mechanical and thermal properties of green lightweight engineered cementitious composites (2013, background): “However, lightweight concrete exhibits more brittle behavior than normal weight concrete with similar compressive strength due to higher cement content and weaker lightweight aggregates [1].”
Design and performance evaluation of ultra-lightweight geopolymer concrete (2016, unknown): “Lightweight aggregates concrete (LWAC) has its roots in the ancient period about 3000 years ago when volcanic materials were used as lightweight aggregates [21].”
