Abstract

This study conducted a quasi-static uniaxial compression test to investigate the compressive properties of foamed metal and cementitious composites. The failure phenomenon, stress-strain curve, and compressive toughness index of the tested specimens were analyzed, and the compressive properties of the pure cement-based materials and foamed metal and cementitious composites were compared. The results showed that the metal foam had a significant effect on the failure mode and compressive performance of the specimen. The compressive strength of the foamed metal and cementitious composite specimens was slightly lower than that of pure cement-based materials. However, the compressive toughness index of the foamed metal and cementitious composite specimens was much higher than that of pure cement-based materials. The foamed metal and cementitious composites had better integrity and toughness after compression compared to pure cement-based materials.
