Itis the ultimate green building block. It is precision molded, interlocking, mortarless and requires little skill to lay
Eco-lite block is made with cellular lightweight concrete. A non-toxic chemical foam is introduced into regular concrete leaving a multitude of air pockets within the mixture. This wet mixture is poured into block molds and allowed to cure.
No heat is employed during the manufacturing process. The molds are disassembled revealing lightweight blocks comprised of Fly ash/sand and cement filled with non-interconnected air pockets.
During construction, reinforced steel (rebar) and grout are introduced into some of the holes within the blocks to form columns. It is these columns that provide the support for the structure.
The structure essentially represents a basic column and beam system with the columns and beams being made out of materials that structural engineers are already familiar with.
The mortarless design creates gaps between blocks which act as expansion joints eliminating the need for such.
Although Liteblok walls are structural, the blocks themselves are not structural elements. Liteblok is a form that contains the structure.
Common Sizes:
600*200*300mm
600*200*200mm
600*200*100mm
Any size is possible, we could modify the foam concrete cutting machine to get what clients demands.
