In today’s world when focus is on reducing self-weight of concrete, light weight concrete has come with the high number of applications to reduce selfweight of concrete. In this study an attempt has been made to compare conventional concrete with the lightweight concrete which is made by partially replacing cement with fly ash and coarse aggregate with pumice stone and adding Thermocol beads using M25 grade of concrete. Lightweight concrete has been made by partial replacement of Coarse aggregate by pumice stone varying in the ratio of 10% 15% and 20% and Thermocol beads by 0.2%, 0.4% and 0.6%.Also cement is replaced by fly ash in the varying ratios of 20% 30% and 40% by weight of cement. In addition to that fine aggregate is replaced by Thermocol beads in the varying ratios of 0.2%, 0.4%and 0.6%.

Light weight concrete plays an important role in structural engineering and its use to steadily increasing light weight concrete using mix M25 and made by partial replacement of cement and fine aggregate by fly ash thermocol. It has many advantages of dead load reduction high thermal insulation, increase the process of building and lowers haulage cos. It is include an expanding agent in that it increase the volume of mixture.

The changes of moisture content for the duration of drying are experimentally investigated in the current work. Particular emphasis is placed on the preliminary stage of drying of saturated concrete, when moisture contents are high, on account that the resistance of the fabric to numerous deterioration methods is reduced at high moisture content material levels, and experimental records for this stage of drying is lacking. The experimental investigation is carried out for concrete cylinders of one of a kind lengths with one give up uncovered to drying. In this way, moisture float is compelled to be unidirectional. The gravimetric approach is employed to gain moisture content distribution in the material at exceptional times of drying. The cylinders are made of lightweight concrete with varying water to cement ratios and moist curing times, and the influence of these variables upon the drying method is assessed. Higher preliminary water content and more speedy modifications of water content take place in light weight concrete with a greater w c ratio. An elevated moist curing period consequences in a minimize of drying fees during the drying process. M. Selvabharathi | Ms. N.

Composite slab construction is emerging technique for flooring system. Concrete is a member that works well in compression and steel is a member that works extremely well in tension. By joining the two materials strength can be exploited to results in a highly efficient way. So the project is to increase the strength of the slabs by using steel sheeting as flexural member and concreting is done over the steel sheets. Experimental verification of load carrying capacity of composite slab is conducted. The steel decking of composite slab is made of cold formed profile sheeting which serves as the permanent form work and tensile reinforcement. The project concentrates on finding the flexural strength of the composite slab. The three geometric profile shapes of steel decking are trapezoidal, rectangular and holorib. Concrete used for composite slabs are reinforced cement concrete, foam concrete and fiber reinforced concrete. B. Viswanath | T.

The tremendous growth in population, globalization and industrialization have led to the development of the construction sectors. The construction sector contributes a majorly to the development of the country based on its infrastructural needs. Also, concrete turns out to be the best and greatest construction building material in the global scenario. Concrete has become a highly sort out construction material because it could be cast in-situ and precast satisfying the construction feasibilities. The concrete is bifurcated into special types of concrete for decades. One such special type includes Self-Compacting Concrete (SCC). SCC has gained high priority among other types of special concrete. SCC has got a unique superior property of easy flowing nature. The greatest credit of using SCC is that it is user-friendly because it does not require compaction, consumes less time, and provides a smooth surface and textured finish. It does not require skilled labour. These advantages have scored and drawn the attention of the construction sector. Nowadays, most of the ready-mix plants use SCC to serve their building. The findings from the current investigation are summarized below. The workability of concrete increase with the increase in the variation in the partially replacement of cement with nano silica and Coarse aggregate with the pumice light weight aggregate. The maximum compressive strength of M40 grade for 7 days of all the mixed combinations is found to be 38.88 N/mm2 when coarse aggregate was replaced with 36% by pumice light weight aggregate and binder i.e., cement with 0.8% by nano silica.The maximum compressive strength M40 grade of concrete for 28 days of all the mixed combinations is found to be 54.42 N/mm2 when coarse aggregate was replaced with 36% by pumice light weight aggregate and binder i.e., cement with 1.6% by nano silica. The maximum split tensile strength M40 grade for 7 days of all the mixed combinations is found to be 3.46 N/mm2 when coarse aggregate was replaced with 36% by pumice light weight aggregate and binder i.e., cement with 0.8% by nano silica. The maximum split tensile strength M40 grade for 28 days of all the mixed combinations is found to be 5.85N/mm2 when coarse aggregate was replaced with 36% by pumice light weight aggregate and binder i.e., cement with 1.2 % by nano silica respectively. The maximum flexural strength M40 grade for 7 days and 28 days of all the mixed combinations is found to be 6.78 N/mm2& 9.24 N/mm2 respectively. when coarse aggregate was replaced with 36% by pumice light weight aggregate and cement with 1.6 % by nano silica respectively. By using of waste materials such as pumice light weight aggregate and nano silica in concrete the structure becomes light weight and economical and environment can be also protected for pollution etc.
