Effect of Lightweight Aggregates Addition on the Rheological Properties and the Hardened State of Mortars

This paper evaluates the use of lightweight aggregates (LWA), namely perlite (PER) and vermiculite (VER) in cement mortars. The workability of mortars was defined in rheometer and flow table tests. Three distinct LWA levels were added (0 - 3, 4.5 - 7, and 9- 10.5 wt%) requiring the use of distinct w...
