In this paper,foam concrete with different density grades was prepared by partially replacing cementitious materials with tailing powder of machine-made sand.The effects of different dosages of tailing powder of machine-made sand on the working performance,me-chanical properties and thermal performance of foam concrete were studied.The results show that when the dosage manufactured sand pow-der is 10%,the 28d compressive strength of A03 and A10 grade foamed concrete is increased by 66.7%and 10.7%respectively.When the dosage of A06 grade foamed concrete is 5%,its 28d compressive strength is increased by 10.5%.With the change of the dosage manu-factured sand powder,the pore structure of foamed concrete is improved to a certain extent.When the dosage is 20%,the thermal conductiv-ity of A03,A06 and A10 grade foamed concrete is reduced by 18.2%,7.4%and 6.9%respectively.
