Light Transmitting Concrete—Litracon

Abstract

Due to the increasing population in world and excessive use of energy, there can occur condition where all energy generating resources can be depleted. As mainly energy is generated by nonrenewable energy resources and to save these resources, there is need to make alternative energy generating as well as energy saving material. In this paper, one such construction material is reviewed which can be also called as energy saving construction material named as light transmitting concrete—Litracon. Also its manufacturing, uses, its different properties, and its effect on power consumption are reviewed. In this paper, it is conclude that, various additives and replacement in material in manufacturing of Litracon which increases its efficiency and make it more effective.
