Chapter 1 Introduction
 CONCRETE Concrete is considered as one of the most widely used material in construction. Concrete is
initially poured in the liquid matter into places which eventually becomes hard after a certain period of time like
natural rock and so it is characterized as a quintessential construction material.
 TYPES OF CONCRETE
 LIGHTWEIGHT CONCRETE It is a version of lightweight concrete that is produced like normal concrete
under ambient conditions. It is produced by initially making a slurry of Cement +Sand + Fly Ash (constituting
26% - 34 % content) + water.
 APPLICATIONS
As reinforced load-bearing in-situ walls and roofs in Low Rise Buildings.
• Even block-work (made from pre-cast blocks produced at the project site or obtained from a pre-casting plant)
can also be used for load-bearing low rise constructions.
• Non-load-bearing internal or external walls in high rise buildings.
• Thermal Insulation of building roofs and walls & roofs of cold storage.
• Filling of depressions in Toilets, floors etc.

Chapter 2 Literature survey
1.Amritha Raj et al., (2019).
In this paper the author discussed about the fresh state and physical properties of concrete viz., consistency, stability,
workability, drying shrinkage, air void system &mechanical properties like compressive strength, flexural strength&
Elastic modulus.The result shows that a minimum water/cement ratio 0.30 is preferred for foam concrete. He mentioned
that the compressive streng thincreases with the increase in density.

2.Juan He et al., (2019).

In this paper the authors studied on the behaviour of foam concrete by using Alkali activated cement & three different
types of foaming agent like sodium alpha olefin(AOS), Sodium dodecycle sulphate (k12) and sodium alcohol ether
sulphate (AES) with the same foam stabilizer of silicone resin polyether emulsion FM-500 (Mps) were used to prepare
foam.The results revealed that the foam stability of AOS and K12 is better than that of AES.When comparing the three
types of foaming agent, the compressive strength of sodiumalphaolefin sulfonate gives high result. They concluded that
AOS foaming agent is mostly preferred for Alkali Activated slag foamed concrete.

Preperation of CLC
The manufacturing process of cellular light weight concrete involves the following steps.

(a) Providing a mixture of slurry of Cement, Sand, Fly Ash and water.

(b) Pouring the mixture into a form or mould of the intended concrete product

(c) Curing the poured mixture;

(d) Demolding the concrete product; and

(e) Utilizing the concrete product.

The typical mix for a 1000 kg/m³ density CLC to be used in blocks is as follows (to produce 1 m3)

Wet density = 1.179 kg/m3

Total volume (submerged in water) 1.000 liters (= 1 m³)

Content of air in concrete approx. = 43%

Content of Fly-Ash = 33%
