Researchers at which of the following IIT have found that thermocol or Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is used as a composite material in core of reinforced concrete sandwich?

A. IIT Madras

B. IIT Roorkee

C. IIT Bombay

D. IIT Kharagpur

Explanation:

Thermocol could be the material of the future for construction of earthquake-resistant buildings, with thermal insulation and could also save energy required to develop construction materials. Researchers at IIT Roorkee have found that thermocol or Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is used as a composite material in core of reinforced concrete sandwich, could resist earthquake forces on up to four-storey buildings.
