House of aerated concrete - or from what stone to build.
Aerated concrete is an effective building material for the house, consisting of 70-90% of air and 10-30% of cement stone.
Consider the advantages of this material over analogues
The air makes aerated concrete very warm. Houses made of aerated concrete warmer than brick houses 4-5 times.
The advantage is also high resistance to any natural phenomena: rain, snow, etc.
The house of this material is durable and durable, serves as a reliable protection from the cold and tolerates the action of an aggressive environment.
Such a wall is not afraid of mold, mildew or microorganisms. What in other cases is a big threat to the supporting structures.
Frequently asked questions about aerated concrete
1. Do they do it in Ukraine?
Answer: Modern factories have been built in Ukraine, in the city of Berezan and Obukhov, and others, which produce autoclaved aerated concrete blocks.
2. What is it made of and how is it made?
Answer: The block production process is as follows:
3. Composition?
Answer: Thoroughly ground lime, quartz sand, water, cement and aluminum powder.
All components are placed in a warm chamber and rise like a pie on yeast, during this process a large number of pores are formed.
High-precision equipment allows you to cut blocks and plates with almost perfect geometry. Then the blocks get into special furnaces, in which they harden at a temperature of 184 ° C and under the action of pressure.
Due to this, a unique crystal structure is formed, giving the blocks special properties: uniform material density, high strength and low thermal conductivity.
It should be noted that the manufacture of such material in the production of a small scale is impossible.
4. How old is aerated concrete?
Answer: Autoclaved aerated concrete has been used in construction for more than eighty years. It is an environmentally friendly, time-tested building material. Production plants are located in Canada and Siberia, Australia and California, Africa and Japan.
5. Quality of blocks?
Answer: Blocks have exact geometry. This allows, to increase the insulation of external walls, to use a special adhesive composition with enhanced thermal insulation characteristics.
AEROC EcoTerm units have a groove-ridge, which perform the function of a thermal lock; which is especially important in the conditions of high prices for gas and electricity.
6. What are the load blocks withstand?
Answer: Buildings of 3-5 floors.
Blocks with a thickness of 300 mm are usually used for the construction of the outer walls of small buildings, for example, single-story cottages for seasonal housing or summer houses. Blocks with a thickness of 375-400 mm are used for the construction of cottages in which you plan to live permanently.
7. Where to get projects?
Answer: Ready one and two-apartment projects of a house of aerated concrete with an area from 70 to 300 m2 are located in the relevant sections. Choose a project that is right for YOU.
