TU Delft was active in co-ordinating, writing and final editing the state-of-the-art report on materials properties of lightweight aggregate concrete. The work resulted in the state-of-the-report on materials properties, entitled LWAC Materials Properties State-of-the-Art. The report, which is available on the internet, is a reference work for all those who are interested in lightweight aggregate concrete. Subsequent chapters cover Introduction, Potentials, Mix design and production, Materials behaviour are early age, Porosity and permeability, Thermal properties and fire resistance, Mechanical properties, Time dependent properties, Durability of LWAC and Evaluation. In the Evaluation a list of research needs is listed. This list has formed the basis for in-depth experimental research. An extensive list of references provides the reader with the possibility of consult the relevant literature on specific topics.
