Light weight expanded concrete is made by addition of aluminum powder to mix, which reacts in same manner as bread dough to yeast; such concrete may be field cast in place or used as precast slabs; besides reduction of weight, expanded concrete has unusual sound deadening properties; data on mixing, use and properties.
