Incorporation Of Crumb Rubber And Air-Entraining Agent In Ultra-Lightweight Cementitious Composite: Evaluation Of Mechanical And Acoustic Properties
This research describes the usage of crumb rubber (CR) and air-entraining agent (AEA) to further reduce the density of lightweight cementitious composite into ultra-lightweight cementitious composites (ULCC), which has density lower than 800 kg/m3. The effects of CR and AEA on workability, compressi...
