Optimum Proportions and Properties of Foamed Concrete Made with Waste Plastic as Fine and Coarse Aggregate

Abstract

AbstractThis research aimed to explore the use of foamed concrete (FC), a lightweight concrete, by replacing sand with crushed plastic from washing machines to improve environmental and thermal properties. The primary components included traditional ...Practical ApplicationsThis study’s findings have significant practical implications for the construction industry. From an environmental point of view, the use of crushed waste plastic (WP) as fine and coarse aggregate in producing foamed concrete offers ...
