• Cellular blocks provide the same or similar performance characteristics as solid blocks but with the significant advantage of having lower unit weight.
• The need to restrict block weights has revived interest in voided blocks and the recently introduced units having innovative core patterns offer additional strength, cutting and chasing advantages.
• Cellular blocks are available in thicknesses from 90mm and are made with either dense or lightweight aggregates.
• Aggregate concrete blocks are the most economical solution for builders. They have the best acoustic properties, provide an excellent background for fixings and have excellent resistance to fire.
• Aggregate blocks are strong, durable, ideal for all wet finishes and for dry lining, and easy to lay and position on mortar.
• Aggregate blocks are ideally suited to the construction of inner leaves, outer leaves, separating walls, beam and block flooring, partitions and for use below dpc.
• Autoclaved Cellular Concrete is a lightweight building material, unique from lightweight aggregate concrete and other types of concrete in that it is composed of millions of microscopic cells generated during the manufacturing process.
• Foamed (or cellular) concrete is made from mixing preformed stable foam to a slurry of cement , sand & water. This action incorporates small enclosed air bubbles within the mortar thereby making the concrete light .
• Foamed concrete has a wide range of applications and some of them include wall blocks , wall panels , floor & roof screeds , trench reinstatement ,road foundations, bridge abutments and void filling.
• Due to current ready-mix supply constraints, the Cematrix Company is maximizing utilization of dry process equipment that uses cement in lieu of ready-mix in meeting its current and expected market demands.
• Moyno type pumps are used to transfer cellular concrete from the mixer to its point of placement. Progressive cavity pumps are constant volume delivery pumps consisting of a rotor and stator. These pumps are sized to deliver adequate material volume through hoses attached to the pumps.
• The second most important factor controlling cellular concrete is the foam generation rate. Assuming the cement weight is correct, the final concrete density is controlled by the volume of the foam introduced in the mixture.
• Foam rate is measured in volume per second. Time is used to determine foam volume introduced during the mixing of cellular concrete.
