Abstract : Providing that self-compacting light weight concrete (SCLWC) is compacted under its selfweight without any compaction, it is necessary to compromise between self-compactibility and weight of SCLWC. So, the primary objective of the present study is to provide information about the balance between self-compactibility and weight of SCLWC containing local lightweight aggregate.
