Investigation of the mix ratio design of lightweight aggregate concrete

According to the analysis of the domestic and overseas researches and achievements of lightweight aggregate concrete, a new strength formula on account of tube compressive strength of lightweight aggregate and glue-capacity ratio is put forward on the mix ratio design of lightweight aggregate concrete. The conception of concrete filler coefficient is also proposed, the theoretical formula of sand-aggregate ratio is deduced and the quasi-principle of stationary water consumption by considering the working character of concrete is summarized. Therefore, the designing equation of mix ratio of lightweight aggregate concrete which is tested by some further experiments is defined.
