Application of structural lightweight aggregate concrete in floating marine concrete structures - A review
No. The PDF includes tables and equations, but not software. However, several third-party concrete suppliers offer ACI-compliant calculators based on 213R-14.
Unlike normal-weight concrete (typically 140 to 150 lb/ft³), lightweight concrete as defined by ACI 213R-14 has a density between 90 and 120 lb/ft³. The guide explains how to achieve this reduction using manufactured or natural lightweight aggregates (expanded shale, clay, slag, or slate).
Details lightweight aggregates (expanded shale, clay, slate) and normal-weight fine aggregates. Discusses absorption characteristics—a critical factor because lightweight aggregates absorb water differently than normal-weight gravel.
Over 100 citations to research papers, building codes, and ASTM standards (C330, C567, C1738).
Lightweight concrete requires extended moist curing (at least 7 days) due to internal water absorption. The guide discusses internal curing—where saturated lightweight aggregates provide water from within.
If you are looking for a more specific application or comparative study, these papers are also highly relevant: For Marine/Floating Structures:
One of the biggest challenges when searching for the is solving issues regarding the placement of the concrete. This chapter addresses:
