Abstract:
This paper aims to discuss the strength and durability of lightweight concrete.
Lightweight concrete is a versatile building material that is known for its ability to reduce the
weight of structures and improve insulation. However, its strength and durability can be a
concern. The paper explores the properties of lightweight concrete, such as its compressive
strength, tensile strength, and durability, as well as factors that can affect its performance,
including mix design, curing methods, and environmental conditions. The study also
highlights various methods for improving the strength and durability of lightweight concrete,
such as adding fibers, using admixtures, and incorporating recycled materials. The findings of
this study will help engineers and builders design and construct more durable and resilient
structures.
