Title

EVALUATION OF COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF BLENDED FOAMED CONCRETE

Abstract

Foamed concrete is an inexpensive, sustainable product with competence as promising construction material. FC has become popular due to its varying densities enabling dead load reduction, leading to saving in substructure construction. The quantity of foam included in the cement slurry is the principal source of the density of foam concrete. Twelve mixes of different densities (400kg/m3, 700kg/m3 and 1000kg/m3) with/without additives (fly ash, silica fume and polypropylene fiber) are casted and tested for compressive strength at age of 28 days. The SF and FA are replaced at a level of 15% and PPF is included at a volume fraction of 0.45. Tests were conducted on cubical specimens for different mix combinations and compared with control FC. The foam concrete strength declines with reducing density. The experimental results reveal an enrichment in the compressive strength with addition of polypropylene fibers. In addition, the compressive strength is improved with addition of fly ash and silica fume
