Popis: The research results concerning dependencies between technological parameters and physical properties of structural lightweight concrete are presented in the article. High-strength lightweight concrete has unique performance characteristics: low average density (less than 1500 kg/m3) and high compressive strength (more than 70 MPa). Hollow alumina-silicate microspheres with nanoscale modifier are used for obtaining these properties. It is shown in the article that the preparation of high-strength lightweight concrete in industrial conditions must be implemented using a turbine mixer having six paddles and engine power more than 39.2 kW. Oscillation frequency of more than 3000 rpm, vibro-compacting time less than 15 seconds, heat-humid treatment temperature approximately 60-65 °C and heat-humid treatment time 6-7 hours are optimal for production. The results of industrial mixing-test are presented.
