Mechanical properties of lightweight aggregates

Lightweight aggregates (LWAs) were successfully produced both in a pilot-scale rotary kiln and in a laboratory chamber furnace. The mechanical properties of LWA were investigated in detail applying the European standard crushing resistance test (CR-test) as well as the single pellet compression test...

Description
Summary:Lightweight aggregates (LWAs) were successfully produced both in a pilot-scale rotary kiln and in a laboratory chamber furnace. The mechanical properties of LWA were investigated in detail applying the European standard crushing resistance test (CR-test) as well as the single pellet compression test (spc-test). The spc-test showed that LWA pellets with porosities
