Lightweight high strength concrete (LWHSC), which combines the properties of both lightweight concrete (LWC) and high strength concrete (HSC), is gaining popularity due to its increased strength and reduced self-weight, that are easier to handle and provide economic benefits. However, LWHSC is particularly sensitive to its material constituents ...

Abstract: The paper presents the results of research aimed at development of nanomodified high-strength lightweight concrete for construction. The developed concretes are of low average density and high ultimate compressive strength. It is shown that to produce this type of concrete one need to use hollow glass and aluminosilicate microspheres.
