L'article presente une synthese des conclusions tirees de l'etude experimentale en laboratoire des proprietes mecaniques du polystyrene expanse utilise pour la construction de remblais routiers en France. L'etude a porte principalement sur l'effet de la densite de ce materiau sur son comportement mecanique (module d'elasticite initial, seuil de plasticite, vitesse de fluage), afin de definir les valeurs a prendre en compte dans les projets. Des valeurs forfaitaires a utiliser en l'absence de…
