Abstract

This study presents an evaluation of basic properties of light weight mortar with expanded polystyrene bead(EPB) and waste expanded polystyrene(WEP) by varying replacement rations. In order to evaluate the basic properties of the light weight mortar with EPB and WEP, unit weight, compressive strength, flexural strength, water absorption ratio, thermal conductivity and distribution of polystyrene (EPB and WEP) in hardened mortar were performed. As a result, unit volume, compressive strength, bending strength, water absorption and thermal conductivity of light weight mortar were increased, but area distribution of polystyrene decreased with increasing the replacement ratio of WEP.

본 논문에서는 발포폴리스티렌 비드 (EPB)와 폐 발포폴리스티렌 (WEP)의 대체율에 따른 경량 모르타르의 기초 특성을 평가였다. EPB 및 WEP를 이용한 경량 모르타르의 기초 특성으로서 단위용적중량, 압축 강도, 휨강도, 흡수율, 열전도율 및 폴리스티렌 (EPB 및 WEP) 분포를 분석하였다. 그 결과 경량 모르타르는 WEP의 대체율이 증가할수록 단위용적중량, 압축 강도, 휨강도, 흡수율 및 열전도율은 증가하고, 폴리스틸렌 면적 분포는 감소하였다.
