Lightweight concrete (LWC) allows for larger spans, fewer piers, and longer bridge designs due to its lower weight and
improved durability. Because superstructures with broader shoulders or additional lanes may be improved without requiring
extensive work on the substructure, LWC is a particularly desirable construction material at the moment. The goal of this
research was to determine the density (unit weight), splitting tensile strength, and elastic modulus of LWC mixtures under
various curing circumstances in order to gain a better knowledge of LWC qualities that are critical for long-lasting and costeffective buildings.
