Plan of work and targets to be achieved.

I. In the first phase, Light Weight Aggregate and PCM has to be purchased. How much
percentage of PCM is immersed in LWA is to be studied. Collection of literatures for
research work has also to be completed. Mix proportions for various percentages of
phase changing material in LWA admixed concrete has to be done. Characterization
of properties of PCM has to be done in laboratories of nearby institute.
II. In the second phase, Strength, Thermal and Micro-Structural studies on LWA
admixed concrete with phase changing material have to be conducted.
