This research was undertaken as a contribution to the study of light weight ceramic materials. Specifically the relationship of bulk density and strength was investigated and an empirical equation for the type Y=aX<sup>b</sup>, where Y represents unit crushing strength and X represents bulk specific gravity, was found to agree with the data.
It was found that a rational theory for the strength of light weight ceramic materials is possible of attainment. / Master of Science
