The Effect of Adding Expanded Polystyrene Beads (EPS) on the Hardened Properties of Concrete
Engineering, Technology & Applied Science Research, 2022 This study investigated the possibility of producing lightweight concrete using Expanded Polystyrene Beads (EPS), using one reference and five light concrete mixes by replacing coarse aggregates with EPS grains in five volumetric ratios: 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100%.

The Effect of Adding Expanded Polystyrene Beads (EPS) on Polymer-Modified Mortar
Engineering, Technology & Applied Science Research, 2022 This study assessed the efficiency of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) waste as a 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60% substitute for fine aggregate in the manufacturing of lightweight cement composites. A 4% low-cost latex paint emulsion was added to the cement mortar to reinforce it as an alternative to the more expensive polymer admixtures.
