“…El hormigón con áridos ligeros se puede obtener de forma natural o procesando residuos ambientales e industriales. Gracias a las diferentes propiedades útiles del hormigón ligero como material de construcción está siendo cada vez más conocido (Pateriya, Dharavath y Robert, 2021). Dado que aporta baja densidad, reduce las cargas muertas en las construcciones (Al-lami y Al-saadi, 2021), de manera que estos hormigones permiten producir elementos estructurales con menor peso propio, por lo que mejoran la capacidad de carga lo que, a su vez, posibilita su uso en elementos constructivos como muros portantes, puesto que, además, es un material eficaz de aislamiento térmico (Appavuravther, Vandoren y Henriques, 2021).…”

Throughout the 20th century, the construction industry has been using large quantities of concrete. Consequently, the demand for natural aggregates has increased, making it necessary to counteract their use. In this context, this work aims at presenting a literature review of the use of lightweight materials to produce low-density concrete, whose thermal insulation is mainly made using lightweight aggregates. In this framework, 52 articles indexed between 2017 and 2021 in the Scopus database were reviewed. The results revealed that, by employing ceramsite sludge as an aggregate, a density of 1,251 kg/m3 can be obtained and, with expanded clay aggregates, compressive strengths from 17.7 to 66.1 MPa can be obtained. In conclusion, it was determined that the use of lightweight materials in concrete production can reduce its density, in addition to contributing to the reduction of environmental damage.
