Currently, materials made of cellular concrete are increasingly used in construction. The strength of the cellular blocks depend on their densities. According to the test results, the dependence of the strength of aerated concrete samples on their density was obtained. However, if we reinforce the aerated concrete blocks with fiber, we will get very different values. When reinforcing cellular concrete with fibrillated fiber, the dependence of strength on density varies – the strength of the samples increases 1.8 – 2.4 times, compared with the strength of non-reinforced samples at a constant density. This means that when fiber is included in cellular concrete, blocks of such low grades as D300 - D400 can be used for the construction of load-bearing walls in low-rise construction

Accelerating the pace of construction of modern and affordable housing with energy efficiency class not lower than B +. This implies the creation of technologies that contribute to an increase in the production of relatively inexpensive heat-shielding materials produced from mineral melts, and used in the construction of flat roofs or used coatings. The developed materials possess a complex of valuable operational properties. There is a significant improvement in the characteristics of the material characteristics - thermal conductivity, compressive strength, water absorption by weight and cold resistance. Improving the insulating properties is enhanced when additives are present in the formulations that saturate the system with lead oxide.

Fire-retardant gypsum solutions on exfoliated vermiculite were studied using volcanic ash and the multi-functional additive D – 5. It was revealed that the introduction of the D-5 additive by weight from the binder significantly speeds up the setting time of the composite gypsum solution on the expanded vermiculite. gypsum-vermiculite solutions with additives of Portland cement and D – 5 have a higher water resistance.The compositions of composite gypsum solution on exfoliated vermiculite and ash have been developed.

Porous concrete is a new type of concrete with high permeability of water flows. It is advisable to use this type of concrete in road construction for the device filtration zones. This will allow to remove water from the carriageway, especially in places where there is no storm sewer. Infiltration of water flows through concrete pavement coatings contributes to their rapid removal from the surface, reducing slipperiness and water planning. The use of macroporous concrete will minimize flooding of car parks and roads. The results of the study confirm that permeable concrete surfaces function stably over time and are not silted with sand and soil.

The use of ultrathin sand as the main raw material in the production of concrete made by semi-dry molding is relevant for many regions of Russia due to the lack of sand with a high modulus of grain size and solid stone. The article presents the results of the analysis of the possible use of sands with a modulus of particle size Mcr = 0.8-1.4 in pressed small-sized concrete paving products for sidewalks. Replacing ordinary sand up to 80% with fine-grained does not reduce strength and performance properties. The transition to fine-grained and silty sands reduces the cost of production.

Experimental verification of the existing method of analytical determination of radiation and thermal deformations of concretes and solutions on the basis of data on deformations of aggregate and cement stone for materials with low content of aggregates is carried out. The test was carried out on samples of solutions with different content of aggregate-sand based on the results of determining the size changes after heating at temperatures from 105 ° C to 400 ° C. It is shown that at the volume content of fillers less than 52% there are differences between the calculated and experimental values of changes in the size of solutions after heating. Moreover, the differences increase with the decrease in the volume content of the filler, with an increase in the heating temperature and the difference between the thermal deformations of the filler and the cement stone. The obtained results allow to correct the results of calculations using the specified existing analytical method for concretes and solutions with a filler content of less than 52%

An assessment was made of the possibility of obtaining high-strength concrete based on certain materials of SRV. The analysis of the effect on the ultimate strength of concrete in compression for the duration of hardening, the magnitude of the water-cement ratio, and the properties of materials was performed. A technique for selecting efficient materials for the production of high-strength concrete based on an estimate of the specific consumption of cement is given. It is shown that on the basis of materials available in the northern regions of NRW, high-strength concrete with a specific cement consumption of about 6 (kg / m3) / MPa can be obtained. It was concluded that, in the production of high-strength concrete, it is advisable to increase the adhesion of cement stone to coarse aggregate, for example, by introducing active microsilica in the form of rice husk ash into the concrete mix. It has been suggested that it is necessary to study the effect of superplasticizing additives used in SRV on the kinetics of hardening of cements in order to determine the group of additives that have a minimal retarding effect on the growth of concrete strength in the early period

The parameters of the thermal effect on the physical and mechanical characteristics of self-compacting concrete with the addition of fly ash Novocherkassk GRES. It was found that a higher level of quality SСС with the addition of fly ash is achieved at low temperature heat treatment. The duration of the thermal effect, which depends on the required Stripping strength of the concrete, should be assigned based on the specific production conditions. The effectiveness of fly ash in self-compacting concrete mixtures is manifested in reducing the water demand of the mixture and increasing the strength of concrete after heat treatment under the condition of rational dosage of hyperplasticizer and mineral additives. The optimum mode of heat treatment of SСС should be set by the coefficient of efficiency of heat treatment.
