Abstract In this study, the effects of zeolite with an alkaline solution prepared combining Na 2 SiO 3 and NaOH on compressive strength, water absorption block density aerated concrete were investigated. Further, effect varying concentrations hydrophobic material i.e., aluminium stearate powder (1%, 3%, 5%) mechanical durability properties are also The results study showed that use improved strength blocks. blocks made 5% had highest lowest absorption, followed by those 3% 1% powder. porosity decreased addition increased density, indicating could help reduce weight conclusion, heat cured using accelerated curing tank (ACT) can improve
