Masonry armed steel concrete with formwork polystyrene expanded high–density in blocks thermal acoustic “to lose” EPS Smartblockplus® or ICF

The need to increase the thermal insulation in buildings in contact with the closures perimeter vertical often led to the deterioration of certain characteristics of the masonry itself, increasing the risk of condensation and mould. It therefore intends to enhance the capacity of thermal wall to keep eps smartblockplus, its thermal inertia. It is the heat accumulation and thermal resistance of the wall: it is linked to the ability to accumulate heat and the conductivity of materials. A certain 'heaviness', or mass of the wall combined with a low thermal conductivity are the best solution, so it is right to have a balance between the weight front and conductivity. The thermal inertia acts both with a magnitude of the wave damping with external thermal mismatch of the same, that is, with the time delay between the impact of the heat wave on the outer surface of the wall and its look with intensity reduced, on the face of the inner wall. The effect of damping to reduce the size of thermal construction, while the delay indicates the thermal environmental conditions in which appear inside the condition of the worst natural climate external (minimum night temperature in winter; Maximum sunshine, summer). Indeed, the wall serves as a reservoir of heat accumulation and thermal shock. It is therefore essential to take account of inaction heat to exploit properly the benefits that can bring in terms of well-being, comfort and energy savings.

The coefficient of transmittance to the surfaces of the walls (U) W / mqK characterizes the flow of heat through an area of 1 unit square meters of wall for a temperature difference of 1 degree Kelvin. The unit is the watts per square metre and can kelvin. More low coefficient is more modest are the dispersion of heat and more high temperature of the surface of the wall, which increases the comforts housing.

The system constructive to keep eps smartblockplus creates a seismic bearing masonry concrete is particularly suitable for complex structures in seismic zones. The advantages of a concrete structure are due to the almost total reduction of costs and thermal bridges, more sound insulation and durability, and no radioactivity harmful elements and a greater internal regulation.

The masonry bearing block eps smartblockplus formwork can be provided by:

  • Many forms of different sections, depending on the needs of structural building
  • They improve the thermal insulation and noise thanks to the internal and external isolation of the two panels that form the eps smartblockplus formwork and concrete core (part structural and accumulation Heat) by reducing energy consumption and heating costs. The formwork system constructive eps smartblockplus has high stability characteristics (R), held (E) and thermal insulation (I). The structure built with blocks formwork eps smartblockplus, after being filled with concrete has a considerable mass frontal allowing disrupt and dissipate the transmission of noise;
  • weighing between 250th 350kg/mq and thermal conductivity ranging from 0.04 -0.02 -0027 W / mK, a high thermal power, high permeability steam and high thermal inertia.
