How does lightweight concrete compare in price to plain concrete?
A typical concrete structure project will be much less expensive cubic meter to cubic meter when compared to plain concrete due to labor savings, less cost of forming works, less steelworks, eliminate brickworks, cement renderings work and the price savings is very substantial when compare to conventional methods. We should note that lightweight concrete is seldom ever used in an application where plain concrete would be applicable. Comparing prices of lightweight concrete and plain concrete is not a meaningful comparison. Lightweight concrete does compare favorably with prices for grout, mortar, and flowable fill. • Is lightweight concrete suitable for long-term use as a marine float device? At the lower densities, lightweight concrete will float, and in many cases float indefinitely. Because of its limited impact and abrasion resistance, lightweight concrete used for marine flotation should be encased and used for the fill of a float. For example, a superior marine float could be mad
