Abstract |
Concrete is a widely used material and is a mix of Cement, aggregates and water. Aggregates being major part of concrete volume, it increases the dead load of components which increases the load on foundation. Use of Light weight aggregates in concrete is thus gaining momentum which can reduce the dead load of concrete without compromising the quality characteristics of concrete. In the current study an attempt is done to understand the various studies done on Styrofoam concrete and investigate the behaviour and properties of Styrofoam based concrete. This study also makes an attempt to visualise and understand the ITZ of Styrofoam based concrete by using F.E.S.E.M analysis. Index Terms- Styrofoam Concrete, F.E.S.E.M. | |||||||||
