Structural Characteristics Of Profile Sheet-Polystyrene Fibre Reinforced Composite Slab

This work presents the determination of structural characteristics of profile sheet-polystyrene fibre reinforced composite slab.It investigates the compressive strength, flexural strength and deflection of slab of profile sheet with concrete mixture of polystyrene beads, cement and sand with agro fibre reinforcement.The materials used include: ordinary limestone cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, polystyrene beads, profile sheet, agro fibre, 10mm reinforcement bars, binding wire and water.Manual mixing operation was adopted, and all polystyrene concrete ingredients were batched by weight.A total of seventy-two (72) cubes of size 150mm x 150mm x 150mm were produced from six (6) mix ratios of water-cement ratio: cement: sand: polystyrene beads, 0.45:1:6:0, 0.
