Abstract The compressive strength test, bulk density and mortar absorption ratio were carried out to utilize the data as the basic sources for the lightweight mortar and the lightweight concrete, through the study on the physical characteristics of the artificial lightweight aggregate (ALA) made of waste glasses, which was developed for the first time in the country. On the basis of these experiments, the density and the unit volume weight of the ALA showed the value less than 50% of the common aggregate due to the independent pore structure, and the mortar that contains ALA had no big difference from the Control mortar in the test of the absorption ratio. It is judged that this happens based on the internal independent pore structure of the ALA. In case of the mortar containing ALA, there was a tendency of declination in the compressive strength and the bending strength as the mixing rate is increasing, but all mortar showed more than 70% of the Control mortar compressive strength except for the La50 mortar. Hereafter, it is judged that according to the control of the mixing ratio of mineral admixing agent, water and cement, it will realize the equal strength to the control mortar, and the long term edurance is needed to be considered together.
