In this paper, the workability and compressive strength properties of expanded polystyrene sanded lightweight concrete was evaluated. Tests on the fresh property of concrete in terms of workability using slump and flow table tests for mix consistency and cohesion were conducted. The compressive strength test used 150mm cubes and three cubes for each testing day. The test was conducted for 7, 14, 21, and 28 days. The materials used were all locally obtained and considering specified standards. All the tests conducted were laboratory based and in accordance with standard codes and specifications. The results of slump test is (0.00 mm) and flow table test with flow of 55 mm (27.5%),
