Aggregate gradation significantly affects concrete mixture proportioning and workability. The particle size distribution, particle shape and surface texture are all important elements in the assurance of concrete quality and durability. Variations in grading materials, either by blending selected size aggregates or an adjustment of concrete
Get PricePumice aggregate is mixed with only enough cement and water to produce a light concrete with a cured strength of 400 PSI. Only enough cement is used to coat the aggregate and bind it together where it touches. This is a lean mix and no attempt is made to fill the space between the stones.
Get PriceLightweight aggregate concrete is prepared by using lightweight aggregate or low density aggregate such as volcanic pumice, clay, slate, shale, scoria, tuff and pellite. Concrete is considered to be lightweight is the density is not more than 2200 kg/m3, when compared to normal concrete which is 2300-2400 kg/m3 and a proportion of the aggregate, should […]
Get PricePumice serves as a filtration media in large culinary water systems around the world. Pumice aggregate and pumice pozzolan are used in concrete applications world-wide. Pumice is the critical lightweight aggregate that underpins the run-away success of strong, lightweight manufactured stone veneer and other lightweight concrete products.

Get PriceHess pumice concrete has 4X the R-value of typical sand-and-gravel aggregate concrete. Well cements made from Hess Pumice aggregates have performance advantages in strength, durability, elasticity, permeability and insulation value over standard concrete.
Get PriceThe lightweight aggregate is an aggregate that weighs less than the usual rock aggregate and the quarry dust is a rock particle used in the concrete for the experimentation. The significant intention of the proposed technique is to frame a mathematical modeling with the aid of the optimization techniques. The mathematical modeling is done by minimizing the cost and time consumed in the case of ...
Get Priceconsolidating concrete mix using two types of pumice densities. J-ring, L-box, V-funnel and slump flow tests have been utilised to evaluate the fresh properties of the mix, in addition to testing the strength and the length change. INTRODUCTION Pumice was used as lightweight aggregate by the Romans more than 2000 years ago to

Get Price2. Pumice as an aggregate for structural lightweight concrete. Pumice is a natural sponge-like material of volcanic origin composed principally of silica and produced from molten lava rapidly cooling and trapping millions of tiny air bubbles. Volcanic pumice has been used as an aggregate in the production of lightweight concrete in many ...

Get PriceConcrete Concrete: Lightweight Pumice Aggregate and Sand Lightweight Concrete Aggregate: Lightweight pumice aggregate for craft-type precast concrete projects—including statuary, containers, pavers—where a smaller aggregate size (3/8 to 1/8-inch stones with some fines/sand) is desirable. Lightweight Pumice Sand: Pumice sand + (includes) tiny 1/8-inch stones.
Get PriceLightweight pumice aggregate for craft-type precast concrete projects—including statuary, containers, pavers—where a smaller aggregate size is desirable. NOTE: the addition of pumice pozzolan (a microfine powder) will provide additional density and strength to cast concrete as well as mitigate ASR.
