Modern construction is distinguished by the active implementation of new technological developments, the desire to best satisfy consumer requests, as well as the use of new building materials. Here, relatively recently, the list of popular building materials has replenished with new, called Arbolit.
Houses from Arbolit. We will figure it out in more detail
What is so interesting this new material, how to explain its rapidly growing popularity? What kind of material is this?
Various blocks, panels and slabs are produced from the arbolite. Unique heat and sound insulation qualities, environmental friendliness, strength and durability of the material served as arbolite houses all over the world. Both load -bearing walls and various partitions are erected from arbolite structures, even in multi -storey industrial construction there was a place of arbolite, because arbolite is strength both that of a stone and the availability of processing like a tree.
The advantages of arbolite as an alternative to brick and concrete are obvious:
1) excellent energy-saving properties and efficiency: the thermal conductivity of the wall composed of 30-centimeter arbolite blocks is equal to a similar indicator of a brick wall of 1 meter;
2) strength – practically does not crack, even during transportation;
3) durability, not susceptibility to rot-built in the 1960s at home from Arbolit are still in excellent condition;
4) environmental safety for both humans and the environment;
5) fire resistance – despite the high percentage of organic materials, practically does not burn;
6) small weight – 3 times lighter than brick and one and a half times – expanded clay concrete;
7) the convenience of processing – almost like a tree is easily drilled, sawn and adjusted during masonry, and also, as a tree, screws are reliably screwed into it, nails are clogged;
8) plaster on arbolite is applied without preliminary reinforcement.
In conclusion, we note that houses built from arbolite blocks, due to savings on the thickness of the walls, additional insulation and finishing materials, it turns out at least 30% cheaper than brick.
