Feasibility Study on Lightweight Aggregates in Concrete - A Review

Now a day there are so many construction materials for concreting and various types of concretes are available in the development of construction materials and in field. Of these Lightweight concretes are widely preferred as this uses the waste materials as by products for the aggregates. Lightweight aggregate can be made out of materials that are considered waste and pollutants of environment and are largely available for recycling. Consequently, the usage of lightweight aggregate concretes solves few problems and few among them are, these uses the waste materials as aggregates, prevents natural resource from further depletion and these are mostly cost efficient. The below report discussed the properties and its importance of on various aspects of Lightweight concrete materials.
