Potentials of the suspension mixing technology

Cement-aggregate mixtures have been sprayed for well over 100 years [1]. Developments in process and concrete engineering made since that time enable shotcretes to be processed re-liably today in both...

Macroporous lightweight concretes whose insulation effect relies on the ratio of air voids within the material are subject to physical limitations that have largely been exhausted by currently used...

The demand for high-quality mixes is increasing. Meeting this demand is often difficult, if not impossible. The reason for this is that mixing processes, as described in the literature, are always...

1. Introduction and applications Saving energy and avoiding carbon emissions are the challenges of our time. Cement-based construction materials account for 7% of global carbon emissions and thus...

Introduction Infra-lightweight concrete exhibits an extremely low dry bulk density of up to 800 kg/m³ while also providing sufficient strength, resulting in low thermal and acoustic conductivity....
