  2. Foam concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foam_concrete

    As mostly no coarse aggregate is used for production of foam concrete the correct term would be called mortar instead of concrete; it may be called "foamed cement" as well. The density of foam concrete usually varies from 400 kg/m 3 to 1600 kg/m 3. The density is normally controlled by substituting all or part of the fine aggregate with the foam.

    The first expanded polystyrene ICF Wall forms were developed in the late 1960s with the expiration of the original patent and the advent of modern foam plastics by BASF. [citation needed] Canadian contractor Werner Gregori filed the first patent for a foam concrete form in 1966 with a block "measuring 16 inches high by 48 inches long with a tongue-and-groove interlock, metal ties, and a waffle ...

    Foamhenge at night. Foamhenge was created in 2004 by Mark Cline of Enchanted Castle Studios as an April Fool's Day stunt to generate tourism. The idea for Foamhenge came to Mark in 1998, when he was inspired by 16-foot-tall (4.9 m) foam blocks that he saw at a local insulation manufacturer.

  5. Expanded polystyrene concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expanded_polystyrene_concrete

    It is created by using small lightweight EPS balls (sometimes called Styrofoam) as an aggregate instead of the crushed stone that is used in regular concrete. [3] It is not as strong as stone-based concrete mixes, but has other advantages such as increased thermal and sound insulation properties, easy shaping and ability to be formed by hand ...

  6. Styrofoam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Styrofoam

    Styrofoam can be used under roads and other structures to prevent soil disturbances due to freezing and thawing. [8] [9] DuPont also produces styrofoam blocks and other shapes for use by florists and in craft products. [10] DuPont insulation styrofoam has a distinctive blue color; styrofoam for craft applications is available in white and green ...

  7. Geofoam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geofoam

    The blocks vary in size but are often 2 m × 0.75 m × 0.75 m (6.6 ft × 2.5 ft × 2.5 ft). The primary function of geofoam is to provide a lightweight void fill below a highway, bridge approach, embankment or parking lot.
