Parametric Study On Polystyrene Sheet in Concrete
Journal Title: International Journal of Civil, Structural, Environmental and Infrastructure Engineering Research and Development (IJCSEIERD) - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 3
Abstract
Now a days, we all are feeling higher degree of heat in concrete building. So, it is necessary to find solution to reduce temperature of house. The solution is, we can use polystyrene sheet in concrete block, which can help to reduce temperature inside the house. But at a same time, we are facing problem with the compressive strength. So, we are using glass fiber to improve compressive strength. In this study, we have usedM20, M25, M30, M35 grade of concrete. Also, we have used Alccofine 1203 in concrete to improve bonding between concrete & polystyrene. In this study, we have used expanded polystyrene sheet between concrete layers and prepared a “Thermoblock”. Ultimately we have tested this block for compressive strength.
