Development of a Lytag-silica fume based lightweight concrete and corresponding design equation for pure bending (2023)
Journal Article
Abbey, S. J., Ghassan, N., Booth, C. A., & Nukah, P. D. (in press). Development of a Lytag-silica fume based lightweight concrete and corresponding design equation for pure bending. Case Studies in Construction Materials,

This study presents a novel Lytag-silica fume concrete (LSFC) for structural and other construction applications. The evaluation of compressive strength development and stress strain relationships of the LSFC light weight was carried out to determine...
