The AAC Blocks Is A Purposeful Building Material

Posted by Divya Sharma on November 15th, 2016

AAC Blocks are also referred to Autoclaved aerated concrete blocks. They are a certified green building material. Its main features are that they are porous, non-toxic, renewable, reusable and recyclable. It is for this reason that they can be used for commercial, industrial and residential construction.

Aerated Concrete is designed for consumers who are environmentally conscious. These blocks help to reduce at least 30 per cent of environmental waste; it also helps to decrease over 50 per cent of greenhouse radiation and over 60 per cent integrated energy on the surface of brick. The thermal mass of blocks and tiny air pores and provide excellent thermal insulation in order to compress the heating and air conditioning costs of a building.

When you feel them, you will find that they are 3-4 times lighter when compared with the traditional bricks. They are also available in custom sizes. It reduces overall construction cost by 4-5 per cent as it requires less jointing and reduced need for cement and steel. The variety in size and thickness of blocks helps to increase carpet area. It is by 20 percent that it reduces the overall construction time resulting in labour cost savings as well.

Here we have provided you with some e advantages of AAC Blocks which makes it superior to any other material in its class:

AAC blocks and other products offer superior performance and reduced project cost due to bigger size and light-weight. Due to their huge size these blocks lead to faster laying at site. In addition to this, when compared with the clay bricks these blocks offer higher thermal insulation thereby reducing investment. In this way no need will be there to install additional insulation products. An effective insulation leads to reduction in energy cost for heating/cooling purpose. Walls which have been built using AAC panels or blocks can withstand fire for a longer duration of time compared to other conventional walling material.

An important feature of these blocks provided by the Aac Blocks Manufacturers India is that they have an Excellent Earthquake Resistance and Load-bearing Capacity.

Because of their o light weight and low density, overall dead load reduces, thus saving structural steel consumption compared to bricks.

Due to their impermeable structure it is impossible for insects and rodents to inhabit in them.

These blocks are equivalent in area to approx. 9 standards clay bricks. At the same time they weigh less ¼ the weight, leading to fast laying. Installation of NXTBLOC is 2.5 times faster than of bricks

These blocks provided by the Aac Blocks Manufacturers In India have exceptional thermal insulting qualities which help to keep the air warm in summer and cold air in winters leads to saving in air conditioning load and enhanced energy efficiency

  • They also have an attractive appearance. This is why they can easily be adapted to any style of architecture.
  • They are non-flammable building material.
  • They are in no way affected by harsh climatic conditions.
  • They will not degrade under normal atmospheric conditions.
  • In the case of a fire they will not release any toxic gases.

They possess an excellent sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of 44db. In this way they are able to provide an ideal material for the construction of walls in auditorium, hotels, hospitals, studios, etc.

They provide s building safety, as infilling masonry as well as in load-bearing constructions.
You can get the AAC products various shapes and sizes especially in the form of AAC blocks and slabs to cater to varying requirements of construction industry.

Some Stunning Facts

* AAC block weighs three times lesser than normal bricks
* It's easy to construct with ACC Blocks.
* One AAC block cost around Rs 80-Rs 90, while normal brick costs Rs 4-5
* One AAC block is equal to six bricks in size
