Experimental Study of New Insulation Lightweight Concrete
The main purpose of this work is to produce a new insulation lightweight concrete block floor based on expanded perlite aggregates natural sand and crushed marble waste. These new blocks can be used for the construction of the composite slabs in order to increase the thermal insulation and to decrease the weight of these slabs.
