The paper presents the results of tests conducted on two lightweight aggregate concretes made of new national Certyd artificial aggregate. This research is intended to first application of lightweight concrete to construct large-span post-tensioned slab. In addition to mechanical properties development, shrinkage and creep during 3 months of loading were tested. The obtained results are compared with theoretical results predicted by standard. Conducted tests indicated, that measured values of shrinkage and creep are significantly lower than predicted ones. This is promise for application of tested concrete in construction of post-tensioned slabs.
