Summary

This study focused on the mechanical performance of polyvinyl alcohol fibre-reinforced lightweight concrete, produced with lightweight aggregates, or airentraining agent, or a combination of both. Superior mechanical properties including low density, high flexural strength and high ductility were achieved and the potential use in wall panel production was then carefully examined.
