Abstract
The fractal morphology of the microstructure of cement foams is studie d. The pore sizes are shown to follow a fractal distribution. The soli d skeleton is also found to be fractal and its fractal dimension is ca lculated for different densities. Deterministic and random models are proposed to model this microstructure.
