This study investigates the properties of self-compacting glass concrete (SCGC), where liquid crystal glass sand (0%, 10%, 20%, and 30%) is used in place of aggregates. The results indicate that the slump flow of self-compacting glass concrete (SCGC) increases with higher glass sand content. Additio

β¦ Synopsis
This study examines the durability of self-consolidating lightweight aggregate concrete (SCLAC) made from dredged silt from reservoirs in South Taiwan by chloride penetration, electrical resistivity, and sodium sulfide solution. Analysis with a densified mixture algorithm demonstrates that a lower waterto-binder ratio results in a higher compressive strength, smaller number of cracks, lower chloride penetration, and better ultrasonic pulse velocity. The results indicate that self-consolidating lightweight aggregate concrete made of dredged reservoir silt has good hardening and durability characteristics.

In this study, the effects of aggregate type on the coefficient of thermal expansion of self-consolidating concrete produced with normal (SCC) and lightweight aggregate (SCLC) at elevated temperature were investigated. In experiments, two aggregate types, crushed limestone and pumice, were used. Dif
