The two tables below compare weight density, compresive strength
and thermal conductivity achievable with a Neat Cement/Fly Ash mix
and those attainable with a Sand/Cement/Fly Ash grout mix.

The compressive strengths shown are approximate. As with ordinary
concrete, the strength at any given density and mix proportion
will also vary with the type of cement and the final water content
of the mix.

The compressive strengths shown are approximate.
As with ordinary concrete, the strength at any given density
and mix proportion will also vary with the type of cement, the
quality and fineness of the aggregate and the final water content
of the mix.

conditions and other variables as dictated by job conditions. |
