Modcrete’s AAC Blocks: Blending Innovation and Sustainability?

Committed to bringing innovation. 

With a profound commitment to our vision, we now have constructed almost 50K dwelling units across 12 states and UTs and prevented 25K emissions of toxic Carbon dioxide, and have been taking the lead eventually in the construction industry with immense pride. 

Modcrete Blox is not only an organization laid with conventional principles of a construction company but is also a sincere endeavour to amalgamate innovation and technology in a way such that it conforms to better environmental health and subsequently conforms to sustainability.


In a world driven by consistent developments and industrialization, humans have been expediting towards progress in a rapid manner. We believe in taking striding efforts to return something to our mother earth. 

AAC: Step to Innovate Construction Technology

With this thought, we have come up with providing Aerated Autoclaved Concrete (AAC) blocks, customized panels, and wailing solutions manufactured in the most eco-friendly manner and thus provide faster construction with minimal harm to the environment. The eco-friendly manner in which the AAC blocks are constructed has the competency of the natural components like wood in terms of heating capacity, strength, and functions. 

The manufacturing processes of AAC blocks do not have any degrading impacts on the environment neither do they contaminate the soil or land, it majorly consumes fly ash and limits the emission of Carbon dioxide. In many ways, the AAC blocks can serve more efficiently than the usual standard bricks, as they are durable, strong, and eco-friendly. Moreover, they speed up the pace of construction due to their quick installation as we may shape them up on-site and easily install them. 

Comparing them with the conventional bricks, an additional advantage is that they are used for exterior as well as interior constructional purposes such as - blocks, panels, floors, and cladding solutions. In such wide applications, they can extend better fire resistance, support insulation and structure. Using AAC blocks, the cost of constructing towering buildings can come down to an economical level as by using AAC blocks that can bear with high thermal variation they would require less steel. 

Conclusion

At present, we are a major player in the AAC blocks since the last decade and continue to drive this eco-friendly innovation and build a stronger foundation for green construction. We also aim to exemplify constructing solutions and resolve to dedicate our efforts to protect mother nature.

TECHNICALLY THINGS ABOUT AAC BLOCKS?

AAC BLOCKS: AAC blocks means the Aerated Autoclave Concrete Blocks. It is produced by a using aluminum as a main ingredient with combination of lime, cement and fly ash. During this process of manufacturing hydrogen gas releases and creates lots of small air cells which results in light weight and stronger cellular structure of AAC blocks.  rendering AAC with a strong cellular structure. For further strengthening of these blocks go through high pressure steam curing in autoclaves.

Size and density of AAC Blocks:

· A light weight AAC blocks weight that varies between 9-12 kg as per the moisture conditions.

· The average size of aan AAC block is  around 9″ X 8″ X 4″- 12″.

· The density of AAC blocks normally ranges between 550 – 650 kg/m³.

Properties of AAC blocks

· Heat protection

AAC Blocks are great for thermal insulation because of it manufacturing elements and cellular structure. They create the insulated interiors that keeps out the warm air in summers and cold air winters. This also helps in reducing electricity cost by lowering the use of air conditioners and heaters.

· Eco friendly

These AAC blocks has a go-green nature. Neither their manufacturing causes any harm to the environment nor does its usage. This makes it count as a green building material.

· Earthquake Resistant

It is commonly said that light weight material leads to less earthquake damage. This same law applies to AAC block buildings as well. These blocks are known to withstand the load of category 5 tropical storms.

· Fire safety

The cellular structure of AAC blocks is such that it does not integrate in fire and has the ability to withstand the fire for 4 hours.

· Safety from Pests

The strong and well constructed buildings with AAC Blocks gives an amazing finish to the wall without any cracks and cavities. This also reduces the chance of insects and rodents from there.
