Abstract
This work will evaluate the shear strength of expanded polystyrene (EPS) with different interfaces. The densities used will be 10, 14.5, 18, 28 and 33.5 Kg/m3. In the laboratory, specific mass tests and shear strength tests (direct shear) will be carried out in large-scale equipment (30x30) cm with different configurations (interfaces) in dry and saturated conditions. Interfaces will be t…
