Q. Do the bubbles in lightweight concrete collapse, reducing its volume?
Q. What are the different densities and strengths available?
Q. How much does lightweight concrete cost?
Ans. Cost effective lightweight concrete varies in price by geographical area and by application requirements such as density and strength requirement. A typical concrete structure project will be much less expensive cubic meter to cubic meter when compared to plain concrete due to labor savings, less cost of forming works, less steelworks, eliminate brickworks, cement renderings work and the price savings is very substantial when compare to conventional methods.Q.
