Use of polystyrene for permanent shuttering

Standard materials for the construction of low-rise buildings for many years were slabs of concrete, brick, wood. Then we have developed foam and aerated concrete.

But research in the building is not standing still. And now on the market manufacturers offer a wide range of advanced materials that allow to implement energy-saving trend.

One such building materials is polystyrene. Russian technologies are still lagging behind the pace of development of the western industry. Who faced with the need to make the wooden formwork, he knows the complexity of working with wood.

The use of polystyrene

This material is used for mounting the permanent shuttering. The method consists in the installation of blocks from plates that are joined webs.

Abroad, it was used about fifty years ago. Now it is widely used in Russia. Today, there are about a hundred different methods of construction of such a formwork.

Polystyrene has a low specific gravity, which allows even IN NUMBER team quite quickly build high-rise buildings. With polystyrene can be run both on specific projects, and to build a model house up to twenty floors. It can be used to fill the foundation or as a formwork for walls.

Polystyrene is sold ready conventional sheets or blocks. Blocks are easy to collect as a designer.

The process itself involves several steps:

• Dig a trench. Cover sand and gravel (15 cm.). Start the installation of blocks. Laying begin with the angle. Cutting unit need only recess.

• Tying reinforcement. It is necessary to strengthen the walls. The finished units have special slots.

• pouring concrete;

• The removal of the majority of fasteners after the concrete pour.

The advantages of using

First of all, it's performance. Reliability and durability, mechanical resistance and durability - these are the main ones. Lightness of the material makes it possible to reduce the massive base.

Using polystyrene greatly reduces the thermal conductivity of the entire structure. In addition, there are no special requirements to the ground area, the temperature characteristics in the process of construction.

The second group of advantages - it financial component. The ease of use makes it possible to reduce the part of the construction team and to renounce the use of large machinery. And this, of course, reduces the cost of the process.

Structural feature is the presence of embedded blocks guides which are used for mounting decorative panels. This reduces the cost of finishing.

As a third possible cause aesthetic advantages.

cost of

Price blocks depends on the material thickness. Average per sq.m. cost from 450 rubles.
