Bétons lourds. Ces bétons sont dus à la présence de granulats à forte masse volumique; les granulats habituels sont en effet remplacés par des granulats lourds à base de fer, de baryum ou de plomb, qui présentent une bonne résistance mécanique. Ils sont dosés à 350 kg/m³ et mis en œuvre avec un compactage très serré. On obtient des bétons de densité comprise entre 3,3 et 6 [...] Les bétons lourds sont principalement utilisés pour la construction des réacteurs nucléaires [...] 2, record 1, French, - granulat%20lourd
