Abstract
 The new artificial lightweight aggregate, which has both higher strength and lower water absorption than ordinary lightweight aggregates, has been developed recently. Furthermore, high performance lightweight concrete containing this aggregate has a lighter weight, a stronger compressive strength, a greater durability, and easier handling than conventional lightweight concrete. The basic properties of the new type of artificial lightweight aggregate, and the fresh and mechanical behavior of the high performance lightweight concrete using this aggregate are reported in this paper.
