Bob explores innovative construction technologies insul tarp and reddiform polystyrene blocks as the structure is reinforced and the first floor walls st.
Polystyrene walls filled concrete.
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.
In the most basic use of concrete in construction using smartblock accomplishes in one step what normally requires numerous steps.
For a stronger concrete increase the sand used and decrease the styrofoam by the same amount.
The substance is often made using small styrofoam balls as a lightweight aggregate instead of the crushed stone that is used in regular concrete.
Of eps on each side.
They are a lightweight polystyrene eps stay in place concrete form that speeds construction and yields a highly insulated wall.
The finished wall will be 5 75 in.
Lightweight concrete also known as epscrete expanded polystyrene concrete is a material widely used in the building of environmentally green homes.
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.
