LIGHTWEIGHT CONCRETE

Strenght and minimum weight

Made of cement, light aggregate, additives and water as main components, this concrete is designed to achieve a specific weight of 1,200 to 2,000 kg/m3 and with the required resistance capacity. This concrete is indicated for screeds that need limited weight, as well as light insulating covers.

It is frequently used in structures and building renovations, since it is a concrete that provides the necessary strength without overloading.

Field of Application

• Thermal and acoustic insulation, such as covers with or without slope.
• Renovation of old buildings. Slab screeds, bringing little weight to the structure.
• Fire-resistant structures.
• Structures that require little weight, without losing resistance.

Benefits

• Little way to scree or cover certain damaged areas of a structure.
• It reduces the necessary section.
• It reduces the load of the structure, relieving the existing weight.
• Greater performance thanks to its fast installation.

Application System

• It can be done using a cupola or by pouring, based on the requirements of the works and the accesses to the pouring points.
• Light vibrating process, after application.
• Curing process, through irrigation or with curating additives.
