Ferrous Crete AAC Block

• Weather & amp; Earthquake Resistant
• Long Lasting
• Acoustically Absorbent
• Economical
• Fire Resistant
• Energy Efficient

These qualities make Ferrous Crete AAC Block perfect for modern constructions and high Rise Building.

Product Application

• Do marking for the Doors, windows and for any other object need to be created.
• Apply the thin layer 3-6mm of fine paste of 1188 Adhesive on the neat & clean identified surface with the help of Trowel (Flat side to be used to spread the paste like butter).
• Then additional paste can be scrapped by using the trowel from its notched edges.
• Place the blocks on that layer spread with adhesive to ensure joints and level are uniform as directed by the site engineer.
• Apply the mixture on the sides of the blocks to fill the joints properly.
• Use the plumb regularly for checking the alignment and level of the wall.
• Excess material need to be removed immediately and continue the above process for whole block wall.
• No water curing is required.
• The setting time is 24 hrs in normal conditions but may delay in over casted rainy or in winter season.
• Full strength will take 14 days approx.
• For larger size of Blocks the layering thickness should be slightly increased for better results.
• For larger size of Blocks the larger size of Trowel (10*10) tool is recommended for adhesive layering.
• The adhesive paste should be applied uniformly on the blocks surface to get proper results.
• Excess paste can be removed with damp cloth or sponge instantly before drying up.

NOTE:

• When the temperature is low during installation, for every 10ºC below 21ºC, curing takes twice as long to the aforesaid time.
• When the temperature is high during installation, for every 10ºC above 21ºC curing takes half as long to the aforesaid time.

• Sound Proof: With its closed air pockets lightweight blocks can provide very good sound insulation/sound absorption with a STC (Sound Transmission Class) rating of 44. It can also be used as sound barrier wall along busy roads. Result, virtually sound interiors.
• Earthquake resistant: Earthquake forces on structure are proportional to the weight of the building, hence light weight blocks show excellent resistant earthquake forces.
• Thermal Insulation: Highest thermal rating in industry 301! Its cellular structure provides well insulated interiors, keeping out warm air in summers and cold air in winters. AAC reduces air conditioning cost up to 50%.
• Fire Resistant: Its unique cellular structure provides excellent fire rating. Due to this cellular structure AAC blocks do not disintegrate even in fire. It is best in class fire rating of 4 hrs. The melting point of AAC Blocks is overs 1600 degrees centigrade, more than twice the typical temperature in building fire 650 degrees centigrade
• Ease of Working: AAC can be drilled , sewed, nailed and chiselled. Basically, one may work. Autocaved Aerated Concrete like wood, using wood working tools. Unlike standard concrete, AAC yields readily without chipping or cracking.
• Water Resistant: Microscopic structure of lightweight block does not allow for capability action making it impervious to water. Its water resistant properties are further enhanced by adding silicon based additives.
• High Strength: High pressure steam curing autoclaving process gives AAC blocks unmatchable strength to weight ratio, higher than even M150 concrete, and far exceeds the building the Indian Building Code Requirements.
• Pest Resistant: With solid wall construction and finishes, there are fewer if any, cavities for insects and rodents to dwell in Termites and ants do not eat or nest in AAC blocks. Being made up of inorganic minerals, light weight blocks does not promote growth of molds.
• Energy Efficient: AAC is 100% green building material and is walling material of choice in LEED certified buildings. AAC is most energy and resource efficient in the sense that it uses least amount of energy and material per m of product.
