  Author(s): Narges Dehkhahari Monfared* and Alirezarashnou
  
  Nowadays, the use of light weight and yet resistant materials has a special place in the construction industry. Lightweight concrete is one of the materials that have been widely used in the construction industry due to its light weight, easier transportation and reduced production costs. Recently, the huge and extensive developments in concrete technology have been able to make significant progress in the concrete production industry by using new methods. The use of bacteria is considered a new and effective strategy in the concrete manufacturing industry. In this study, the role of calcite deposits on the compressive strength of lightweight concrete is investigated, before and after heat treatment of 150, 300, 450, 600 degrees celsius. The results obtained after examining the samples that were processed for 28 days in water and water containing calcium chloride and urea showed that .. Read More»
