Polystyrene Walls Filled Concrete
Create an energy efficient and sustainable building with smartblock insulated concrete forms.
Polystyrene walls filled concrete. Smartblock forms are made of expanded polystyrene eps they are an insulating stay in place formwork that speeds construction and yields a superior finished wall. Bob explores innovative construction technologies insul tarp and reddiform polystyrene blocks as the structure is reinforced and the first floor walls st. The substance is often made using small styrofoam balls as a lightweight aggregate instead of the crushed stone that is used in regular concrete. In the most basic use of concrete in construction using smartblock accomplishes in one step what normally requires numerous steps.
Of eps on each side. Interlocking blocks of expanded polystyrene eps have been used as permanent forms for a variety of wall installations with concrete being placed in the voids in the patented eps blocks. Insulated concrete form walls are constructed by pouring concrete into hollow pre formed panels which are most commonly made of expanded polystyrene or extruded polystyrene foam. The finished wall will be 5 75 in.
They are a lightweight polystyrene eps stay in place concrete form that speeds construction and yields a highly insulated wall. The standard form blocks are each 10x10x40 inches and have interlocking notched edges that make it simple to lay and align the blocks into a tightly fitted wall surface. Of concrete core and 2 125 in.
