Application of Stochastic Finite Element Modeling to Reinforced Lightweight Concrete Beams Containing Expanded Polystyrene Beads

Limited investigations have evaluated the effect of expanded polystyrene (EPS) beads on the structural lightweight concrete properties. EPS offers many features compared to natural or artificial lightweight aggregates including the elimination of aggregate saturation prior to concrete batching, abil...
