Hollow-core slabs and wall elements without prestressed steel wire can be formed by extruders. The size of these elements will typically range in width from 600 to 2400 mm, in thickness from 150 to 500 mm, and can be delivered in lengths of up to 24 m. [1] The voids of the hollow core can be used as conduit for installations.
A pallet of "8-inch" concrete blocks An interior wall of painted concrete blocks Concrete masonry blocks A building constructed with concrete masonry blocks. A concrete block, also known as a cinder block in North American English, breeze block in British English, concrete masonry unit (CMU), or by various other terms, is a standard-size rectangular block used in building construction.
Larger size blocks leads to faster masonry work. Reduces project cost for large constructions. Fire-resistant: AAC, like other concretes, is fire-resistant. Ease of Handling: AAC Blocks are lightweight, making them Easier to Lift, Carry, and Install, Smoothing out construction and further improving Efficiency compared to Traditional Materials.
Soil cement and landcrete are similar materials but use other types of soil [1] and hydraform blocks which are compressed, stabilized, earth blocks. Sandcrete is usually used as hollow rectangular blocks similar to concrete masonry units, often 45 centimetres (18 in) wide, 15 centimetres (5.9 in) thick, and 30 centimetres (12 in) with hollows ...
the medium gross density of 850 kg/m 3 to 1.100 kg/m 3 (white coloured blocks, suitable for standard usage) the high gross density blocks of 1.100 kg/m 3 to 1.500 kg/m 3 (reddish colour, suitable for walls with higher acoustic performance requirements) The dimensions of these blocks are: length 500 mm, height 500 mm. Four blocks thus make 1 m 2.
A hollow structural section (HSS) is a type of metal profile with a hollow cross section. The term is used predominantly in the United States, or other countries which follow US construction or engineering terminology. HSS members can be circular, square, or rectangular sections, although other shapes such as elliptical are also available.
MRC Allied, Inc. (MRC) is the first publicly listed property development firm in the Philippines which has found its niche in development of master planned, integrated residential, commercial, recreational, tourism and industrial areas within a single community or township.
A cylinder of foam concrete. Foam concrete, also known as Lightweight Cellular Concrete (LCC) and Low Density Cellular Concrete (LDCC), and by other names, is defined as a cement-based slurry, with a minimum of 20% (per volume) foam entrained into the plastic mortar. [1]
