Understanding the dynamic behavior of Lightweight Aggregate Self-Compacting Concrete (LWASCC) is importance to safety concrete structures serving in loading conditions. In this study, fundamental properties LWASCC with three types LWA were investigated by impact resonance method. Results show that elastic and shear modulus generally decrease increase volume fraction, whereas exert limited influ...

Salient features of lightweight aggregate concrete (LAC) include noticeable fire resistance, high strength-to-weight ratio, and low magnitude dead loads. Further, LAC has a cost, eases construction practices, possesses an environment-friendly nature. On the downside, substandard mechanical properties in comparison to normal concrete. Natural fiber-reinforced polymers (FRPs) have shown their pot...
