Cement foaming agent is the key material in the production of foamed concrete. Whether it can produce foamed concrete with suitable density depends on the selection of a suitable cement foaming agent. There are many types of cement foaming agents on
Millions of tons of waste glass are produced globally. The use of waste glass in concrete is an environmentally friendly solution, contributing to sustainable construction practices. This study investigates the potential of using recycled waste glass powder (RWGP) in foamed concrete nonload bearing wall panels as acoustic barriers. This study investigates the axial and flexural behavior of wall panels constructed with foamed concrete incorporating RWGP. A total of ten 900 mm long and 700 mm wide wall panels of foamed concrete with RWGP reinforced with 7.6 mm diameter steel mesh were cast and tested. Five wall panels were 75 mm thick and reinforced with one layer of steel mesh and the other five wall panels were 120 mm thick and reinforced with two layers of steel mesh. The experimental results exhibited that 120 mm thick wall panels sustained significantly higher peak axial and flexural loads, bending moments, axial deformations at peak axial load and midspan deflections at peak flexur
An international team of scientists from Saudi Arabia, China, Pakistan, India, and Australia have collaborated on a new paper in Cement and Concrete Composites using machine learning to test foamed concrete.
Foam concrete is prone to cracking during maintenance, mainly caused by unscientific construction and maintenance of the proportioning. Luchuang has a series of solutions. In the years of construction, Luchuang has accurate material proportions for d
Foam concrete is a unique concrete material with numerous applications not only in the construction industry. This article explains what the material is, describes its advantages and applications, and relays the latest advances in foam concrete research.
