Abstract
Multiphase lightweight aggregate concrete (MLAC) is a green composite building material prepared by replacing part of the crushed stone in concrete with other coarse aggregates to save construction ore resources. For the best MLAC performance in this paper, four kinds of coarse aggregate—coal gangue ceramsite, fly ash ceramsite, pumice and coral—were used in different dosages (10%, 20%, 30% and 40%) of the total coarse aggregate replacement. Mechanical property and impact resistance tests on each MLAC group showed that, when coal gangue ceramsite was 20%, the mechanical properties and impact resistance of concrete were the best. The compressive, flexural and splitting tensile strength and impact energy dissipation increased by 29.25, 19.93, 13.89 and 8.2%, respectively, compared with benchmark concrete. The impact loss evolution equation established by the two-parameter Weibull distribution model effectively describes the damage evolution process of MLAC under dynamic loading. The results of a comprehensive performance evaluation of four multiphase light aggregate concretes are coal gangue ceramsite concrete (CGC) > fly ash ceramsite concrete (FAC) > coral aggregate concrete (CC) > pumice aggregate concrete (PC).
