About AAC Block
AAC blocks are precast, foam concrete, sustainable construction material made from aggregates of sand, calcined gypsum, fly ash, lime, Ordinary Portland cement, water and aluminum powder. After mixing and moulding, the concrete is autoclaved under heat and pressure and it thus gains its distinctive properties. AAC bricks are in high demand, owing to its properties like light weight, thermal insulation, sound insulation, ease of work, fire resistance, etc.
Why use AAC block
AAC blocks have a wide range of advantages and their usage truly benefits the construction. With AAC Blocks, you can get better Thermal Insulation which keeps the spaces comfortable and leads to Energy Saving. It improves the Acoustic Performance in the building and offers Moisture Resistance and Fire Resistance. AAC blocks have a better Workability and are Easy to Install that leads to Fast Construction. These blocks have High Strength which makes it Earthquake Resistant and gives it more Endurance. AAC blocks are Lightweight compared to clay bricks and hence offer more Precision. It has a good Water Barrier and reduces plaster cost which leads to overall cost saving in the construction.
AAC Block Advantages
AAC Block Advantages
Genex AAC blocks are 1/3 of weight of the red clay bricks which makes them easy to transport, thus saving on the overall logistics and shipping costs, as compared to the costs involved in the transportation of traditional red clay bricks.
With its superior strength, Genex AAC blocks give durability to the finished structure which makes them more capable of handling higher seismic loads, compared to structures with conventional bricks.
Genex AAC Blocks are larger than traditional bricks, which leads to easy installation and gives the desired flexibility for making adjustments by cutting, shaping etc. These blocks have fewer joints and consistent dimensions, which makes laying them easier and makes the construction process faster.
The average compressive strength of the Genex AAC Block is 3 to 5 N/mm2. Thus, it is much stronger and better than bricks of the same density.
Genex AAC blocks are made from natural and non-toxic raw materials and their manufacturing process generates minimum waste. Some of the waste or off cuts generated can be recycled or used in aggregates. As it is made from non-biodegradable materials, it makes the building durable and stable, preventing rot or mould. Furthermore, being lightweight, energy-efficient and easy to install, AAC blocks also minimize labour costs.
Owing to the unique cellular, bee-hive like structure, the fire resistance quotient of Genex AAC Blocks is very high.
Genex AAC blocks are prepared from inorganic materials, which help in protecting the structure from pests such as termites, rodents, etc.
The lightweight and porous structure of Genex AAC blocks enables high sound reduction which makes it a perfect fit for the construction of studios, hotels, and hospitals.
The macro-pores inside Genex AAC blocks ensure low absorption of water, thus providing better moisture protection to the walls & structure.
The material in Genex AAC Block contains small air pockets and hydrogen is used to foam the concrete, thus giving it an excellent heat insulation property that allows temperatures to be warm in winters and cool in summers. Therefore, it can significantly lower your air-conditioning & heating costs by about 25%.
