Abstract

Recent advance in material technology has accelerated the development of high strength concrete using lightweight artificial aggregates. The lightweight concrete has many advantages that the reduction of dead lads and the increase in load capacity can ofter. In this study, lightweight polymer concrete using unsaturated polyester resin and lightweight aggregate were prepared and tested for testing the physical and the mechanical properties. The compressive strengths of lightweight polymer concretes with specific gravities from 1.32 to 1.78 were compressive strength of 250 to 470 $kgf/cm^2$ and flexural strengths were measured to be in the range of a third to a quarter of compressive strength
