compressive strength of foam concrete

2022-1-11 · For dry density of foam concrete between 500 and 1000 kg/m3, the compressive strength decreases with an increase in void diameter. For densities higher than 1000 kg/m3, as the air-voids are far apart to have an influence on the compressive strength, the composition of the paste determines the compressive strength. We are a professional ...
