Investigation on Durability of Artificial Light-weight Aggregate Concrete Structure by Standard Size Cores and Small Size Cores

Abstract

Authors have investigated on compressive strength, Young's modulus and neutralization with standard size cores and small size cores sampled from artificial light-weight aggregate concrete structure aged 36 years. From the results artificial light-weight aggregate concrete is durable, and estimation method for strength and neutralization of concrete in structures by small size cores is applicable not only to normal weight concrete but also artificial light-weight aggregate concrete.
