Journal ArticleDOI
A classification of studies on properties of foam concrete
TL;DR: In this article, the authors classify literature on foam concrete in terms of constituent materials (foaming agent, cement and other fillers used), mix proportioning, production methods, fresh and hardened properties of foam concrete.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of filler type on the properties of foam concrete
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report the results of a systematic study to ascertain the influence of filler type (i.e., sand and fly ash) and the particle size of sand on the properties of moist cured foam concrete.
Journal ArticleDOI
Models relating mixture composition to the density and strength of foam concrete using response surface methodology
TL;DR: In this article, the relative influence of fly ash replacement on strength and density of foam concrete is studied by comparing it with mixes without fly ash and brought out that replacement of fine aggregate with fly ash will help in increase in the strength of foamcrete at lower densities allowing high strength to density ratio.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sorption Characteristics of Foam Concrete
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the sorption-related properties of foam concrete as affected by its composition and pore structure and found that sorption values are lower than the corresponding base mix (without foam) and the values reduce with increase in foam volume.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fresh State Characteristics of Foam Concrete
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of a mixture composition on the properties of foam concrete at the fresh state was studied and the consistency of the foam concrete mix was measured in terms of the spread percent using a flow cone test and flow time using a Marsh cone test.
