Bending Performance of Precast Lightweight Aggregate Concrete Exterior Wallboard with a Concealed Rib Sandwich Structure

A new type of precast lightweight aggregate concrete exterior wallboard is proposed in this study. It is composed of inner and outer panels, an insulation layer, and concealed ribs. After adjusting the mixing ratio of lightweight aggregate concrete, light weight, bearing capacity, and good workability were guaranteed. The flexural performance of the composite exterior wallboard was studied by testing and numerical modeling of four wallboards, and the results of deflection, crack morphology, failure mode, and ultimate flexural capacity were then obtained. Additionally, the cracking and bending properties of the composite exterior wallboard were observed, and the calculation method of bending capacity and the cracking moment was studied. The calculated results coincided with the experimental data; therefore, this study provides a reference to the design and application of prefabricated exterior wallboards.
