Properties of high strength tuff lightweight aggregate concrete
AbstractThe potential use of naturally occuring tuff aggregates available in north-eastern Jordan to produce high strength lightweight concrete has been studied. As a result of various concrete mixes, and using normal techniques, it was possible to obtain high quality lightweight concrete which is suitable for application in reinforced and prestressed concrete structures, with a compressive strength as high as 60 MPa at 90 days.In order to investigate the mechanical short term properties of this type of high strength concrete, a large number of specimens of different shapes and sizes were tested at different ages. The properties obtained include unit weight, Poisson's ratio, static modulus of elasticity, specimen size and shape effect, and the development with age of compressive strength, splitting tensile strength and modulus of rupture under different curing conditions.
