Lightweight concrete with expanded polystyrene (EPS) has been adopted for several
decades. The EPS is to reduce the structural weight of the material for precast and …

Expanded polystyrene (EPS) is currently being utilized in sustainable materials owing to its
ultra-low density and superior thermal performance. It can be incorporated in concrete …

This paper deals with the contribution of expanded polystyrene (EPS) particles on fire
resistance, thermal conductivity and compressive strength of foamed concrete. The foamed …

In this work, crack initiation and propagation in 2D and 3D highly heterogeneous materials
models, such as those obtained by micro-CT imagery of cementitious materials, is …

This paper presents the results of an experimental study on the effects of using recycled
waste expanded polystyrene foam (EPS), as a potential aggregate in lightweight concrete. In …

In this study, mix proportion parameters of expanded polystyrene (EPS) lightweight
aggregate concrete are analyzed by using Taguchi's approach. The density, compressive …

In this study, the waste expanded polystyrene (EPS) was used in a mixture of cement and
tragacanth resin in order to produce a new concrete material. The amount of the resin in the …

In a global context where the need for quality housing is increasing with improved standard
of living and growing population, the over exploitation of natural resources as building …

This paper deals with the uniaxial compression behavior of porous ceramics within a wide
range of porosity, varying from 30 to 75vol%. The load–displacement curves recorded on …
