Expanded polystyrene (EPS) has offered solutions to many civil engineering problems
associated with pavement construction. Issues, such as the construction of pavements on …

Remote sensing is a method of collecting data without making any physical contact with the
object under inspection. Modern day remote sensing kicked off with the invention of the …

The design of subsurface structures associated with transportation and other underground
facilities, such as buried pipes and culverts, requires an understanding of soil-structure …

Expanded polystyrene (EPS) geofoam is a lightweight material that has been used in
engineering applications since at least the 1950s. Its density is about a hundredth of that of …

Earth loads acting on buried structures are known to be influenced by the characteristics of
the soil, and the stiffness and geometry of the structure. To reduce earth pressure acting on …

This paper presents the experimental study that investigated the applicability of
compressible inclusion, expanded polystyrene (EPS) Geofoam panels, placed over a buried …

The present study focuses on an advanced and accurate characterisation of the
compressive behaviour of expanded polystyrene (EPS) geofoam with the aid of imaging …

Expanded polystyrene (EPS) geofoam (geofoam block) is commonly used as a lightweight
fill for many civil engineering applications. However, when used for slope remediation, the …

This study presents the comparison of the mechanical properties of a relatively newer
product that is referred to as Elasticized expanded polystyrene (E-EPS) with the Standard …

Lightweight fills constructed by the use of expanded polystyrene block (EPS-block) geofoam
(geofoam block) is known to be susceptible to horizontal loading since the vertical pressure …
