All rights reserved Why Expanded The insulating, fire resistance and lightness of Expanded Clay Aggregate (ECA) makes it the most significant material for Clay Aggregate constructing and fabricating a wide range of precast (ECA) Is Preffered components and elements To Other This includes the sound absorbing and refractory products such as precast panels, blocks for constructions fireplaces and Aggregates?: chimneys.

Copyright © 2017 Rivashaa Eco Design Solutions P. LTD. All rights reserved A study was carried out in determining the shrinkage of concrete when using Expanded Clay Aggregate (ECA) and Normal Aggregate. Why Expanded The results of the study on the shrinkage for a year of high- Clay Aggregate strength Expanded Clay Aggregate (ECA) concrete exposed to a dry environment compared with that of the Normal Weight (ECA) Is Preffered concrete have shown that the shrinkage of Normal Weight concrete with granite aggregate was higher than that of the To Other corresponding Expanded Clay Aggregate (ECA) concretes with Aggregates?: the same mixture proportioning in the first 6 months. After 12 months the shrinkage of the Expanded Clay Aggregate concretes was to an extent higher than that of the Normal Weight concrete.
