Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of water-to-cement ratios (W/C) on the mechanical properties of lightweight aggregate concrete (LWAC) prepared using artificially expanded bottom ash and dredged soil granules. For the all-LWAC and sand-LWAC (with sand content of 50% for replacing lightweight fine aggregates) groups, W/C varied from 30% to 50% at an interval of 5%. From the comparison of the normalized compressive strength development, a higher long-term strength ratios were observed in LWAC when compared with the common values of the conventional normal-weight concrete. The compressive strength, tensile strength, modulus of elasticity and rupture, shear friction strength, and bond strength with a reinforcing bar measured in sand-LWAC were higher by approximately 42%, 35%, 35%, 52%, 33%, and 3.5%, respectively, than those of the companion all-LWAC. The modulus of elasticity and rupture of LWAC could be estimated conservatively using the design equations specified in KBC 2016.
