Dimensions of wall and partition blocks, standard and common

Individual developers often give preference to concrete blocks, as this artificial stone allows you to save on building materials.About all its benefits, features masonry, we wrote a lot, and add something completely new is unlikely to succeed.But at the block size is still more detail.Why do they need to know?

First , so with a full understanding calculate the required amount of the procurement party, as well as proper preparation of any estimate suggests including a reasonable and cost optimization.Especially if we are talking about your own wallet.

Second , to determine the number of machines (flights), with sufficient capacity equipment.Air blocks on personal transport is not vyvezesh and rent "boards" depends on the type of vehicle and the time of use (as a rule - by the hour).

Previously, products were produced to the same standard:

• length (L) - 400,
• width (W) and height (H) - 200 (mm).

Now the product range more widely, especially since all the "bricks" are divided into several types, depending on the particular application (installation location) - walling, partitions, for load-bearing or non-load-bearing structural elements.Enumerate all sizes of foam blocks is not worth it, because a lot of them, and the application depends on how the procedure is carried out bricklaying - "landing" on the adhesive composition or the DSP solution.In addition, there are differences and 1 parameter with equality of the other two.

Suffice it to say that only the foam block height (using glue) can be 7 positions (depending on the "W" and "D").A total of about two dozen.Who wants to learn more about, can refer to the number 21520 with GOST 1989.

In practice, the private developer is unlikely to be calculating all to "mm".Yes, it does not make sense, because technological errors depend entirely on the professionalism of the master, first of all, on the thickness of the bonding layer, which he puts (mortar or glue).

can be guided by such (averaged) data (linear dimensions of standard foam blocks in "mm»):

• for bearing (external) walls - D = 600 x 300 x 200 (23.4 kg).the same "brick", but they are placed "on end" internal use With the construction.In this case, "W" becomes "B" (200);
• for not carrying (walls) - 600 x 300 x 100 (11.7 kg).

These parameters - the most common in the individual building.In addition to standard sizes without significance and volume of the foam block 1.It is equal to 0.036 (for the "carrier") and 0.018 (for septal) m³.In the first type 1 pallet fit 40 pieces of blocks, the second - in 2 times more.How many different sizes of blocks per cubic meter - see here.

What to consider

parameters In determining the required amount of foam blocks necessary to slightly increase the calculated values ​​(dorecommended "amendment").For what?Firstly, in the course of transportation on the individual object items are damaged (about 2.5%).Secondly, part of the "bricks" will have to cut, fit for the place of masonry (much depends on the structural features of the architecture).On it is given another 3 to 5%.In this connection, experts recommend to buy concrete blocks with a margin of about 10%.

Artificial stone is loaded into the machine on pallets.These devices - reusable, so it is desirable to return to the seller.But since not all of them do, or bring in such a state that a further operation, they are not suitable (and sometimes even can not be restored), then the purchase of building materials for the pallets have to leave a cash deposit, which you can take back only after their return.
