Cenosphere Based No Aggregate Floating Concrete
Abstract: Concrete is an excellent building material, used widely around the world, but the only disadvantage of concrete is that it has self-weight. This self-weight does not allow concrete to be used in light-weight structures. In this work, mix design is prepared in such a manner that density of concrete is less than that of water and hence concrete can float on water and therefore it is termed as floating concrete. …
