Autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) is extensively used for structural and non-structural purposes owing to its good thermal and sound insulation, fire resistance and energy efficiency [11]. Moreover, AAC results in 70% and 40% reduction in the energy consumption per unit volume of material compared to the normal concrete and bricks, respectively.
The manufacturing process creates millions of tiny air cells that provide excellent thermal resistance. This thermal resistance combined with the benefits of thermal mass inertia, whole wall coverage and low air infiltration will, in many areas, eliminate the need for additional insulation. The products are solid and self-i nsulating. The density of an AAC …
