  • Abstract:

    This collection describes tests and results on various fill materials in the cavities of lightweight concrete masonry units and the conductivity and resistance coefficients developed by each. Fill materials covered were lightweight aggregate, perlite, zonolite, vermiculite. Some tests were run on lightweight aggregate CMU without any fill materials in the cavities, but with painted surfaces.
