Adjusted Density High-strength Concrete Using Expanded Polystyrene Beads
This paper reports the results of an experimental investigation into the effects of incorporating varying amounts of expanded polystyrene beads on the engineering properties of high-strength concrete. It was observed that a density reduction of 8.3% caused compressive strength, tensile strength and modulus of elasticity to reduce by 48%, 39% and 15%, respectively. Drying shrinkage was marginall...
متن کاملuse of expanded polystyrene (eps) and shredded waste polystyrene (swap) beads for control of mosquitoes
background: mosquitoes transmit several diseases to human. there are several measures for control of larvae. as part of integrated vector management (ivm) program, the utility of floating layers of polystyrene beads (eps) is a potential alternative in habitats of mosquito larva. eps beads prevent oviposition of mosquito as well as killing the immature stages by forming a tick layer on the w...

متن کاملan experimental investigation on fire behavior of expanded polystyrene
fire behavior of different types of eps was evaluated with the use of iso 5660 cone calorimeter test method. considering the complexity of behavior of eps against high temperatures, several specimens were tested, so a betterjudgment on fire behavior of this material could be acquired. the effects of foam density, thickness of specimens and the level of heat flux on fire behavior of foam were ex...
متن کاملUtility of expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads in the control of vector-borne diseases.
The use of chemicals or bio-larvicides for the control of Culex quinquefasciatus and Anopheles stephensi breeding in pit latrines and overhead tanks (OHT) respectively is discouraged owing to many undesirable impacts in the environment. Due to faecal contamination and poor survival, use of predatory fish in OHTs is not feasible. The use of expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads is a potential alterna...
