Lightweight Cellular Concrete (LCC)

Lightweight cellular concrete is concrete made with Portland cement, water, and preformed foam air bubbles to form a lightweight fill material. Lightweight cellular concrete has many uses and benefits. Cellular concrete is often chosen for its thermal and insulative properties, and ease of placing due to its lightweight design, pumpability, and flowability. LCC is also as a cost-effective alternative to traditional fill material in certain applications.

Testimonials

Gave us the best quote. Very impressed by their attentiveness and professionalism. They did a great job putting spray foam in our challenging, unique renovation project. Wouldn’t hesitate for a second to hire them again and will be doing so in the future.

Jesse arrived on time and listened to what I had to stay and was patient. Jesse was able to provide me with bids for multiple properties that were reasonable and honest. In fact, I had casually mentioned additional work that was needing to be done upon following the waterproofing, IE landscaping, concrete, etc. He incorporated those services into his bid at a very affordable rate. Needless to say, he was awarded both jobs. Structis has delivered as promised, in a timely fashion. The craftmanship, communication, job site etiquette and professionalism make Structis stand out above the rest. I’m hoping this is the beginning of a long-standing business relationship.

FAQs About cellular concrete

What is cellular concrete?

Cellular concrete is a type of concrete that is made using Portland Cement, water, and a preformed foam. The foam is combined with the cement slurry using a static mixer. The resulting concrete is lightweight, very flowable, and stable with virtually no bleed water.

How is cellular concrete produced and placed?

In order to create the proper cellular concrete mixture, foam liquid concentrate is run through a foam generator, which combines air, water, and the concentrate to create a preformed foam (air) bubble. These small, highly-stable air bubbles are mixed with a cement slurry through inline-injection, and pumped via a hose to the fill location.

Where is cellular concrete commonly used?

The main value proposition of cellular concrete is that it can be used in a variety of applications where a strong, lightweight fill material is required such as slope stability fills, annular space fills, and abandonment applications. It is also used for bridge abutment and retaining wall backfill.

How strong is cellular concrete?

Cellular concrete has a much lower density than traditional granular fills. Standard granular fill has a density of approximately 120 pounds per cubic foot (PCF) whereas the most common cellular concrete applications are in the 30 PCF range. Cellular concrete should be viewed as a soil replacement when considering strength. Even at its lightest density, cellular concrete is stronger and more durable than the best compacted soils. Common applications of cellular concrete yield a bearing capacity of over 14,000 pounds per square foot (PSF).

What are the advantages of cellular concrete?

There are several benefits and advantages of using cellular concrete as a solution on your next project. Cellular concrete has these properties and benefits:

  • Lightweight
  • Very flowable and virtually self-leveling
  • Extremely low bleed water
  • Very stable volume
  • Can be pumped long distances and at low pressure
  • Low shrinkage properties
  • Adjustable mix designs for strength and density requirements
  • Very strong compared to traditional fills
