Can AAC blocks be used for load bearing walls?

AAC blocks can be used both in load bearing walls as well as non-load bearing or partition walls. Their maximum use is being made in RCC-framed structures where these blocks fill up the wall panel spaces between column and beam network.

Are AAC blocks fireproof?

Fire resistance AAC Block & Panel are resistant to high temperatures for a longer period than most solid building materials. Depending on the walling thickness of the AAC Block and Panel, fire ratings up to three hours can be achieved. It is non-combustible and it will not give off toxic fumes.

Which chemical is used in AAC block?

AAC is a blend of Portland cement, lime, sand, gypsum and possibly fly ash. Then aluminium powder is added to create tiny bubbles.

Can AAC blocks be recycled?

AAC blocks cannot be reused in the form of building blocks as traditional clay bricks. In the next decades many buildings and structures, constructed from autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) will reach their end of lifetime, therefore solutions should be developed to recycle the resulting waste material.

Are ytong blocks waterproof?

You can safely use Ytong outdoors because the stones are now permanently waterproof.

Which is better AAC or CLC?

1, the compressive strength of AAC block are better than the other two concrete blocks (CLC, Fly ash based concrete). 2) In Graph. 2, the water absorption of Fly ash based concrete are quite good w.r.t. the other concretes.

What is Ytong blocks?

Τα θερμομονωτικά τούβλα YTONG Blocks χρησιμοποιούνται για την κατασκευή εσωτερικής και εξωτερικής τοιχοποιίας προσφέροντας εξαιρετική θερμομόνωση και εξοικονόμηση ενέργειας.

Can Ytong products be used to build external walls?

When used to build external walls, YTONG products meet all strict requirements made by various countries without use of any other auxiliary thermal protecting materials. Tests show that YTONG products with a thickness of 4-5cm perform the same function of thermal protection as one layer of common blocks; with a thickness of 7-8cm.

What is the weight of 3ytong standard blocks?
