Ytong SismiClima - Легкий бетонный блок для наружных стен

With SismiClima blocks it is possible to build load-bearing masonry without the need for reinforced concrete stiffeners and without thermal insulation.‎ This construction system combines the excellent mechanical strength characteristics typical of aerated autoclaved concrete with excellent energy performance, with a thermal transmittance value starting from 0.‎27 W/m2K.‎ SismiClima block masonry is designed for the realisation of compact and regular buildings in plan and with 2/3 storeys of elevation.‎ Smooth insulating blocks for ordinary masonry (not reinforced) or single-layer infill with high thermal insulation.‎ Can be used in seismic zones in accordance with D.‎M.‎17/01/2018, CE marked masonry system in accordance with UNI EN 771-4 and European Technical Assessment ETA-17/0365.‎ CE marked product in compliance with the harmonised standard UNI EN 771-4, Group 1 element according to EN 1996-1-1.‎ More than 100 years ago, in 1923, architect and researcher Dr.‎ Axel Eriksson invented "vapor-vulcanized gas concrete" in Sweden - now known as autoclaved aerated concrete.‎ Together with Carl August Carlén, an entrepreneur, they started the first production in 1929 in Yxhult, southern Sweden, at a time of great scarcity of raw materials and stricter energy laws.‎ A competitive advantage on the market The sustainability of buildings is increasingly at the center of construction trends, with modern sustainability policies undertaken by international institutions and organizations that have favored the increase of this trend.‎ The choice of materials and construction technologies are fundamental to obtaining homes that consume less and consequently have a lower environmental impact.‎ A sustainable home can cost on average 8% more than a normal home, but this difference is compensated by numerous advantages in the long term: a healthier and more comfortable environment, significant economic savings compared to bills and a higher value of the building; It is estimated, in fact, that the value of a green property can increase from 2 to 10% with sales times halved from 8 to 4 months.‎
