Abstract:

In this study, the mineral contribution of the Elazığ area belongs to the mercury powder, the pressure resistance of the carrier light concrete obtained using the pumpstone as an agrega and the ultrasound sound tolerance were studied. The mercury powder used in experiments was used by replacing the area by 0.10% and 20% of the cement weight. For the preparation of the samples, the maximum one diameter (dmax) of 16mm is used. 150×150×150 mm cubes are prepared for pressure resistance and ultrasonic sound passibility tests. For samples 7, 14, 28 and 90 days, a standard water curve was applied at 20°C. Pressure resistance tests of the applied samples have been performed and the ultrasonic sound tolerance rates have been measured. According to the results obtained in the study, 10 percent marble powder contributed concrete samples began to show better resistance than control concrete after 28 days. Furthermore, the pressure resistance values of light concrete with 20% marble powder have shown lower resistance properties than the control concrete.
