Geofoam EPS-46 is a cellular plastic material that is strong, but has very low density (1% of traditional earth materials.) It is a manufactured in block form and meets ASTM D6817, “Standard Specification for Rigid, Cellular Polystyrene Geofoam.”
Specifications
EPS Geofoam is produced in block form and is easily positioned at the work site. Standards sizes:
3’ (914 mm) thickness
4’ (1.2 m) widths
8’ (2.4 m) lengths
Other sizes and fabrication can be provided for an additional fee.
Ready to Use
EPS Geofoam maximizes onsite installation efficiency: material arrives ready to place, no weather delays.
Quality Assurance
All our manufacturing sources for EPS Geofoam meets or exceeds the requirements of ASTM D6817, “Standard Specification for Rigid, Cellular Polystyrene Geofoam.”
Design
For most applications, long-term design loads should not exceed the linear elastic range of EPS Geofoam. Combined live and dead load stresses should not exceed the compressive resistance at 1% strain.
Additional Information
Please consult our Geofoam TechData which provides additional information, design considerations, and technical information on the full range of EPS Geofoam materials available. Please also refer to ASTM D6817, ASTM D7180, and ASTM D7557
EPS Geofoam comes in large blocks that are easily handled by the contractor, it can be easily trimmed to fit around obstructions and other as built features at the project site. Geofoam maintains its volume over its complete life. Geofoam is a low density material, its engineered to meet expectations, consistent in its makeup with few limitations and not weather sensitive.
There are a number of other “medium weight” fill materials that are sometimes considered for use as soil substitutes. These materials all are lighter than soil, but do have a number of limitations:
Foam Concrete – must be made onsite, dirty, noisy, can freeze in cold weather, can only reach a low density of about 25 lbs/ cu ft.
Waste Tires – variable sourcing, not an engineered product, hard to transport and place.
Light weight soils – these are still much heavier than Geofoam.
Wood Chips – variable sourcing, variable species density, hard to transport and place, not an engineered material, can decompose.
Wood Fiber – variable sourcing, variable density, hard to transport and place., can decompose.
When considering all of the attributes of EPS Geofoam, you realize that it is an engineered material that has product features and benefits that are far superior to other potential fill materials.
