Abstract
The Plastbau and Plastbau-3 systems are mainly used in construction of residential and office buildings. These technologies can be used for construction at low temperatures. The design of wall formwork elements includes the outer and inner layers of polystyrene foam fastened together at the 200 mm distance with a frame made of 3-8 mm reinforcing bars. The systems’ thermal insulation capacity is very high and varies depending on the thickness of polystyrene foam walls. Insulation slabs of the Plastbau-3 formwork panels are made of first class polystyrene foam with a density of 30 kg/m3 and an almost unlimited working life is guaranteed. High efficiency and energy conservation rate embedded in this construction technology and its elements allow to construct high-quality housing at a low cost. Currently, the Plastbau-3 technology is used at construction sites in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Saratov, Orenburg, and other cities.
Highlights
It has been a long time since construction materials production industry in Russia last saw a modernisation
Foreign experts believe that the disadvantages of mass apartment building development include: poor inter-floor and inter-apartment sound insulation, which reduces the comfort of living; in spring and autumn; indoor temperature largely depends on the weather outdoor; considerable utility costs
No height restrictions apply to Plastbau-3 walls.¬ In addition to plaster, which is a typical finishing material, such walls can be finished with polystyrene foam, plasterboard, or gypsum fiber board that has a high level of acoustic absorption Rw=53dB and good fire resistance RAL 180
