Lightweight aggregate concrete with open structure
Structural capacity of self-supporting wall panels made of LAC
Lightweight concrete with open structure and lightweight aggregate is increasingly used for the construction of façades due to its excellent thermal insulation properties. Pumice, which occurs naturally, is one of the materials used as lightweight aggregate. In combination with the open structure, the highly porous and extremely lightweight material has an insulating effect so that transmission heat losses via the building envelope can be minimized and the increasing requirements of the Energy Saving Ordinance can be met. In addition, due to a very good carbon footprint, low water and primary...
