Light concrete is the most profitable and practical option for low -rise housing

Among the important advantages of the material — a small weight with an impressive size suitable for the construction of any structural elements, up to any type of roof. Builders are quite easily controlled with them. For example, the weight of the block 600x75x250 mm, by the way, by building standards, it is considered “small” — with a density of material of 500 kg per cubic meter — 5.6 kg, and at a density of 400 kg/cubic meter M — a kilogram less than a kilogram.

If we talk about the seasonality of relatively light concrete, then it is worth noting the similarity with “brick” works. In fact, the construction processes do not differ: the foundation is poured, then the laying of the walls per solution. Of course, there are special additives that allow you to carry out work with concrete and at low temperatures, but experts advise, in order to avoid a decrease in quality, they still fit in seasonal time before the onset of cold weather.

The average price of a gas concrete cottage is about 4 million rubles

True, the representative of the Vector Investments adds, this is the price without a finish, which in a qualitative version will be released at a price of $ 1,000 per square meter.
