Axle solid concrete wall using permanent formwork of polystyrene foam
Abstract
Article deals the results of investigations and thermal performance characteristics of monolithic reinforced concrete exterior walls with the use of expanded polystyrene formwork construction based on actual operating conditions, humidity conditions of building blocks in the multi-cycle and their resistance to alternating temperature and humidity effects. Found that the climatic conditions Vladivostok and Ussuriysk construction and use of polystyrene as a formwork (and therefore insulating layers) allows thermal protection due to regulatory concrete insulation layer on both sides of layers of polystyrene of 7 cm (outer layer) and 5 cm (inner layer).
