Original Abstract

Research work is aimed on development of Lightweight High Performance Concrete (LWHPC), especially of Lightweight Self Compacting Concrete (LWSCC) with the use of lightweight aggregates "Liapor" manufactured in the Czech Republic. The development of concrete is aimed to the so called high performance concrete in the last years. It is especially possible to follow pronounced applications of self compacting concrete and of high strength concrete and the beginning of lightweight concrete applications utilizing lightweight natural or artificial porous aggregates. It is necessary to mention that the development of new types of concrete is always confronted with the lack of adequate standards, proposed directions and necessary experience. For these reasons it is the aim of this work to verify and to apply the theory of high performance concrete and of light-weight self compacting concrete and further to verify the possibility of these materials pumpability . The paper describes the experience concerning the combination of these directions, especially the development of lightweight self compacting concrete under the condition to reach the most possible strength values with possible pumpability.
