This review highlights the properties, advantages, and challenges of foamed concrete, particularly focusing on its fire resistance, thermal insulation, and weight-reduction capabilities. The addition of polymers such as epoxy enhances both the structural and thermal properties of the material. This paper synthesizes key research findings on the impact of additives like fly ash and epoxy on the performance of foamed polymer concrete, identifies areas where further improvements are needed, and discusses its future potential in sustainable construction practices. Additionally, this review explores the role of foamed polymer concrete in reducing construction costs due to its lightweight nature, which lowers transportation and labor expenses. Its application in reducing the carbon footprint of large-scale projects makes it a favorable choice for green building certifications. By examining the material’s performance under different environmental conditions, this review offers insights into the long-term sustainability of foamed polymer concrete in varying climates. The study also highlights how advancements in material science, such as the incorporation of nanomaterials and recycled aggregates, could further optimize the properties of foamed polymer concrete. Ultimately, the paper outlines the potential for this material to become a cornerstone of eco-friendly and energy-efficient building practices, paving the way for broader adoption in future construction endeavors.}, keywords = {Concrete, Epoxy, Foam, Lightweight, Strength and Durability.}, month = {March}, }
