Original Abstract

The paper is devoted to a extremely lightweight concrete, crushed aggregate from foam glass. Foam glass is made of recycled glass. Crushing of the foam glass then obtains the desired fractions of aggregate. When designing the extremely lightweight concrete is also used two types of recycled fiber: fibres from cellulose from recycled newsprint and fibres from recycled polyethylene terephthalate bottles. For extremely lightweight concrete, the basic properties were measured: bulk density, compressive strength, thermal conductivity coefficient.
