What is Autoclaved Aerated Concrete Blocks?
Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) is a kind of precast concrete, made from all natural ingredients to achieve high efficiency and excellent performance benefits. AAC is a Lightweight, Load-bearing, High-insulating, Durable building product, which produced in a wide range of sizes and strengths. AAC blocks are three times lighter as compare to the red bricks.
Lightweight precast concrete containing air bubbles throughout the material, which in autoclaved aerated concrete block, to obtain a low density of lightweight materials in an autoclave oven.
Properties of Autoclaved Aerated Concrete
Autoclaved Aerated concrete block, solid block of lightweight associated with the adhesive, has been reinforced with additional steel strength. AAC has a very high insulation value ensures excellent sound insulation barrier, for this reason, they are used in the construction of the above type. Extra large solid rectangular prism, the precast autoclaved aerated concrete wall laid with a mortar with a thin layer, there has been autoclaved. Installed units shall be protected from direct exposure to moisture by using a coating material.
Features of AAC Blocks
1) Light Weight:
AAC is lighter than traditional bricks and hence reduces a dead load of building thereby saving on cost.
2) Earthquake Resistant:
Earthquake forces on structure are proportional to the weight of the building, hence light weight blocks show excellent resistance to earthquake forces. Regions with high seismic activities like Japan use lightweight concrete blocks.
3) Fire Resistant:
Its unique cellular structure provides for excellent fire rating. Due to this cellular structure, AAC Blocks do not disintegrate, even in a fire.
4) High Strength:
High pressure steam-curing autoclaving process gives AAC Blocks unmatchable strength to weight ratio, higher than even M 150 Concrete and far exceeds the Indian Building code requirements.
5) Thermally Insulated:
Highest thermal rating in the Industry R30! Its cellular structure provides well insulated interiors, keeping warm air in summers and cold airs in winters.
6) Water Resistant:
Microscopic structure of AAC Blocks does not allow for capillary action making it impervious to water. Its water barrier properties are further enhanced by adding silicone based additives.
