Abstract
This study aims to summarize the research and development of light-weight soil mixed within EPS beads at home and abroad. It is
point out that the confining pressure, cement content, EPS beads content, water content and curing time have a profound effect on
the mechanical properties, the strength and deformation properties. And from the macroscopic and microscopic, the formation of
the shear strength and the failure mechanism are revealed. The literature also presents the experimental studies of creep,
permeability and water absorbability in order to confront practical applications, especially under dynamic loads. It is found that the
confining pressure, cement content, EPS beads content are main factors to the relationship between the dynamic stress and strain,
the dynamic strength ,dynamic modulus and damping ratio. At last, the article introduces some engineering applications, then
points out the existing problems about researching EPS composite soil which should be paid more attention.
Keywords: EPS Beads; Light-Weight Soil; Strength and Modulus; Dynamic Property; Constitutive Model
