Abstract

This research aims to study the influences of volume fraction and particle size of expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam beads on properties of lightweight concrete. Three concrete mixtures with different volume fractions of cement-sand-EPS foam bead (C-S-F) of 1-1-1, 1-1-1.5, and 1-1-2 were produced. For each concrete mixture, three EPS foam beads with diameters of 2.0 mm, 4.75 mm, and 9.5 mm, were used in order to study the effect of its particle size. Water to cement ratio (w
