Muka hadapan: Pembinaan Kubah Masjid Presint 3, Putrajaya
Kompleks Masjid Presint 3 (”Grand Mosque”) Putrajaya ini terdiri daripada dua blok utama iaitu blok masjid dan juga “Kiblat Walk”. Apabila disiapkan sepenuhnya pada tahun 2008, masjid ini akan berupaya menampung seramai 20,000 orang jemaah di ruang solat utama, teres dan kawasan limpahan yang dikenali sebagai ”Sahn”. Penggunaan teknologi IBS banyak digunakan di dalam pembinaan masjid ini. Ia termasuk penggunaan kerangka keluli dan juga skrin dinding ’”Mashrabiyah” yang diperbuat daripada kombinasi komponen aluminium dan keluli tahan karat.

Bajet Pemangkin IBS
Pembentangan Rang Undang-undang Perbekalan, atau lebih dikenali di kalangan kebanyakan rakyat Malaysia melalui istilah tidak rasminya iaitu ’Ucapan Bajet’, pada setiap September merupakan suatu acara yang amat dinantikan. Pembentangan Rang Undang-undang Perbekalan 2008 telah disempurnakan pada 7hb. September 2007 di Dewan Rakyat, Parlimen Malaysia oleh Y.A.B. Perdana Menteri Malaysia melalui kapasitinya sebagai Menteri Kewangan. Sepertimana pada bajet tahunan yang sebelumnya, industri pembinaan terus diberikan penekanan oleh Kerajaan Malaysia. Perumahan awam terus dipergiatkan oleh kerajaan dengan peruntukan RM 381 juta untuk membina rumah-rumah kos rendah. Sebanyak RM 887 juta pula telah diperuntukkan untuk membina kuarters kakitangan awam di seluruh negara. Pihak Syarikat Perumahan Negara Berhad (SPNB) juga akan membina 46,000 ribu unit rumah di bawah Bajet 2008.
Walaupun tidak ada sebarang pengumuman spesifik berkaitan IBS sepertimana Bajet 2005 dan Bajet 2006, namun melalui penekanan terhadap perumahan awam melalui Bajet 2008 ini, adalah dijangka bahawa penggunaan IBS di dalam sektor pembinaan Malaysia akan terus meningkat berdasarkan kepada arahan penggunaan minima sebanyak 50% kandungan IBS untuk projek bangunan awam yang telah berkuatkuasa semenjak tahun 2005. Berdasarkan Roadmap IBS 2003-2010, kandungan minima tersebut akan dipertingkatkan menjadi 70% pada tahun 2008. Oleh yang demikian, melalui penekanan kepada projek perumahan, Bajet 2008 akan menjadi pemangkin kepada peningkatan penggunaan teknologi pembinaan tersebut.
IBS Digest Edisi Ketiga 2007 ini juga memaparkan laporan kepada Ekspo Binaan Antarabangsa Malaysia Ke-24 (24th. Malaysian International Building Exposition; malbex2007) yang telah diadakan pada 19 hingga 22 September 2007 di Pusat Konvensyen Kuala Lumpur. Sebanyak 200 syarikat telah mengambil bahagian selaku pemamer di acara tersebut. Suatu Pavilion IBS telah disediakan untuk para penggiat industri IBS mengambil bahagian; terutama kepada pengusaha-pengusaha yang baru berkecimpung di dalam sub-sektor ini. Buat pertama kalinya juga di dalam malbex, suatu inisiatif promosi besar-besaran berkenaan IBS telah dijalankan melalui pengedaran edisi khas IBS Digest iaitu ”IBS DIGEST @ malbex” kepada 15,000 pengunjung ekspo tersebut. Adalah penting bagi metodologi, sejarah dan polisi berkenaan IBS ini diterbitkan bagi tujuan rujukan pegawai-pegawai pelaksana dan penggiat industri. Ini dapat mengelakkan daripada berlakunya salah tafsiran ataupun kesilapan berulang di dalam usaha negara mencapai sasaran-sasaran Roadmap IBS.
Salam Tahun Baru 2008,

Rang Undang-Undang Perbekalan (2008) telah dibentangkan di Dewan Rakyat, Parlimen Malaysia pada 7 September 2007 oleh YAB Dato’ Seri Abdullah bin Hj. Ahmad Badawi, Perdana Menteri dan Menteri Kewangan Malaysia. Sejumlah 176.9 bilion ringgit telah dicadangkan untuk diperuntukkan bagi Bajet 2008. Jumlah itu adalah 10.9% lebih tinggi berbanding peruntukan tahun 2007. Daripada jumlah tersebut, RM 128.8 bilion adalah bagi Peruntukan Mengurus, manakala RM 48.1 bilion adalah untuk Peruntukan Pembangunan. Berdasarkan cadangan peruntukan ini, pertumbuhan ekonomi negara adalah dijangka untuk meningkat dengan kadar di antara 6 hingga 6.5% pada tahun 2008. Bagi tujuan rujukan para penggiat industri, di bawah adalah perenggan-perenggan yang dipetik daripada Ucapan Bajet Tahun 2008 yang berkaitan industri hartanah, program kemahiran dan perumahan rakyat yang secara tidak langsung turut memberi impak positif kepada pelaksanaan Roadmap IBS 2003-2010.
STRATEGI PERTAMA: MEMPERTINGKAT DAYA SAING NEGARA
Merangsang Sektor Hartanah
36. Untuk menggalakkan sektor pembinaan hartanah, saya telah mengumumkan baru-baru ini pengecualian cukai keuntungan harta tanah. Bagi terus mempergiatkan sektor hartanah, terutamanya perumahan, Kerajaan mencadangkan pengecualian 50 peratus duti setem diberi ke atas surat cara pindah milik bagi sebuah rumah yang tidak melebihi 250,000 ringgit seunit. Langkah ini akan mengurangkan kos pembelian sebuah rumah sehingga 2,000 ringgit.
37. Kerajaan berusaha untuk terus meningkatkan penyertaan Bumiputera dalam sektor hartanah. Untuk ini, Pelaburan Hartanah Bumiputera Berhad (PHBB) telah memperoleh beberapa hartanah di lokasi strategik untuk dibangunkan sebagai projek komersil bernilai tinggi. Antara projek komersil ialah Penang Sentral yang merupakan projek terminal pengangkutan dan logistik bersepadu di Wilayah Ekonomi Koridor Utara. Di samping itu, satu dana permulaan bernilai 400 juta ringgit telah diwujudkan oleh PHBB bagi meningkatkan pelaburan hartanah
Bumiputera di Wilayah Pembangunan Iskandar (WPI).
38. Dalam Bajet 2007, dana pelaburan strategik WPI telah ditubuhkan dengan peruntukan permulaan sebanyak 200 juta ringgit, sebagai pemangkin pelaburan baru dalam sektor keutamaan di WPI. Dana ini telah berjaya mendapat komitmen sektor swasta untuk melabur lebih satu bilion ringgit untuk projek pendidikan, seperti universiti swasta. Kerajaan akan menyediakan peruntukan tambahan sebanyak 100 juta ringgit, terutamanya untuk menarik pelaburan berkaitan perkhidmatan kesihatan.

STRATEGI KEDUA:MEMPERKASA PEMBANGUNAN MODAL INSAN
Mempertingkatkan Program Latihan dan Kemahiran
63. Bagi menampung kekurangan pekerja mahir dalam sektor pembinaan, penggunaan tabung Lembaga Kemajuan Pembangunan Industri Pembinaan (CIDB) akan dipertingkatkan. Untuk tujuan ini, CIDB akan melaksanakan Program Latihan Masterskills yang meliputi kemahiran dalam pengurusan dan pembinaan fizikal. Bagi tahun 2008, seramai 50 ribu pekerja dalam sektor pembinaan akan dilatih dalam program
ini dengan kos berjumlah seratus juta ringgit.
STRATEGI KETIGA:MENJAMIN KESEJAHTERAAN RAKYAT
Program Perumahan untuk Rakyat
71. Satu langkah penting bagi membantu golongan berpendapatan rendah menikmati taraf hidup yang lebih selesa ialah dengan menyediakan perumahan mampu milik yang mencukupi. Selaras dengan hasrat tersebut, Kerajaan akan mempergiatkan lagi program pembinaan rumah kos rendah dan kos sederhana.
72. Sejumlah 381 juta ringgit disediakan bagi melaksanakan perumahan rakyat kos rendah. Dari jumlah tersebut, 191 juta ringgit diperuntukkan bagi Program Perumahan Rakyat (PPR) Disewa dan 190 juta ringgit bagi PPR Bersepadu. Pada masa ini, 12 ribu unit PPR Disewa dan 25 ribu unit PPR Bersepadu sedang dalam peringkat pelaksanaan.
73. Syarikat Perumahan Negara Berhad (SPNB) akan juga mempergiatkan pembinaan rumah bagi golongan berpendapatan rendah, seperti berikut:
Pertama: 6,000 unit di bawah Program Pemulihan Rumah Terbengkalai; Kedua: 36,000 unit di bawah Program Perumahan Mampu Milik; dan Ketiga: 4,000 unit di bawah Program Rumah Mesra Rakyat.
74. Kerajaan amat prihatin atas kesukaran golongan yang tidak mempunyai pendapatan tetap, seperti petani dan pengusaha kecil, mendapatkan pinjaman bank untuk membiayai pembelian rumah kos rendah dan sederhana. Ini termasuk mereka yang mempunyai keupayaan untuk membayar balik pinjaman perumahan tetapi tidak dapat menyediakan bukti pendapatan mereka. Dengan itu, Kerajaan akan menyediakan dana sebagai jaminan kepada bank untuk memberi pinjaman perumahan kepada golongan ini. Sebagai permulaan, 50 juta ringgit telah disediakan sebagai jaminan kepada Bank Simpanan
Nasional dan Bank Islam Berhad, berkuatkuasa 1 Januari 2008. Kerajaan yakin kemudahan ini dapat membantu golongan berpendapatan rendah yang tidak mempunyai pendapatan tetap untuk memperoleh pinjaman perumahan.
75. Rumah merupakan aset terpenting. Lazimnya, nilai rumah bukan sahaja terus meningkat dalam jangka panjang, bahkan rumah merupakan jaminan kesejahteraan masa hadapan. Sebahagian besar daripada pendapatan bulanan rakyat dibelanjakan untuk bayaran bulanan pinjaman perumahan. Untuk meringankan beban ini, sukacita saya mengumumkan bahawa Kerajaan akan membenarkan pencarum KWSP mengeluarkan baki dalam Akaun 2 setiap bulan untuk tujuan membantu pembayaran ansuran pinjaman perumahan. Setiap pencarum dibenarkan menggunakan kemudahan ini untuk membiayai pinjaman sebuah rumah, berkuatkuasa 1 Januari 2008.
76. Ini merupakan satu langkah penting yang akan memberi manfaat kepada kesemua lima juta pencarum aktif KWSP. Skim ini akan membolehkan pencarum memiliki rumah yang lebih selesa serta meringankan beban kewangan mereka. Skim ini akan membolehkan sebanyak 9.6 bilion ringgit setahun dikeluarkan oleh pencarum untuk membeli rumah.
77. Sebanyak 9,600 unit kuarters telah siap dibina di seluruh negara pada tahun 2007 untuk menyediakan perumahan yang mencukupi bagi kakitangan Kerajaan, manakala 13,000 unit lagi dijangka siap pada tahun 2008. Kerajaan memperuntukkan sebanyak 887 juta ringgit pada tahun 2008 untuk membina lebih banyak kuarters kakitangan awam di seluruh negara.▐

Seramai lebih 15,000 pengunjung telah hadir sepanjang empat hari pameran tersebut berlangsung. Transaksi dagangan semasa malbex2007 pula telah dijangkakan untuk bertambah sebanyak 10 peratus berbanding RM86.5 juta pada tahun lalu. Peningkatan transaksi itu disumbangkan oleh pertambahan peserta dari luar negara di dalam pameran ini. Faktor pertumbuhan industri pembinaan tempatan yang semakin
rancak dilaksanakan termasuk di Wilayah Pembangunan Iskandar (WPI) adalah di antara tarikan bagi syarikat-syarikat tersebut untuk menyertai pameran berkenaan. Sebanyak 200 syarikat mengambil bahagian di dalam pameran dan lebih daripada 30 peratus daripada jumlah itu adalah peserta dari luar negara. 70 peratus daripada jumlah peserta pameran itu terdiri daripada peserta berulang manakala 50 syarikat menyertai pameran tersebut buat pertama kali. Para peserta antrabangsa adalah termasuk dari Austria, Belgium, Brunei, Perancis, Jerman, India, Itali, Korea, Filipina, New Zealand, Sepanyol, Thailand, United Kingdom dan Amerika Syarikat. Peserta pameran daripada Singapura, Taiwan, China, dan Persatuan Pengeluar Bahan-bahan Binaan Malaysia (BMDAM) pula mempunyai pavilion khas masing-masing.
IBS turut diberi penekanan di dalam pameran pada tahun ini di mana telah disediakan suatu pavilion khas untuk para penggiat industri IBS; terutamanya para penggiat IBS tempatan. Selain daripada itu, terdapat juga para pengeluar IBS dari negara luar yang mengambil bahagian. Di antaranya adalah sebuah syarikat IBS dari Napier, New Zealand iaitu Scottdale Construction System Ltd. Syarikat ini menawarkan sistem kerangka keluli ‘light gauge’ untuk komponen-komponen bangunan seperti dinding, lantai dan bumbung. Technology Communiation Pte Ltd dari Singapura juga menganjurkan seminar satu hari bertajuk “Roof and Façade Asia Forum - Asia Sustainable Development, Collaboration and Opportunities”. Di samping berkaitan dengan IBS, ia turut menekankan isu-isu semasa dan alam sekitar yang
boleh memberi impak kepada industri pembinaan. Produk-produk sokongan untuk industri IBS seperti sistem kalis air dari Eastern Pretech Sdn. Bhd. dan papan gentian selulos simen Hume Cemboard Marketing Sdn. Bhd. turut diperkenalkan melalui sesi Air@malbex; di mana para pengunjung bukan sahaja dapat menyertai sesi pembentangan produk bahkan turut mencuba produk-produk yang ada di pameran ini.
Di dalam usaha untuk mendedahkan IBS kepada komuniti pembinaan secara lebih meluas dan seterusnya mempertingkatkan pelaksanaan pembinaan IBS kepada projek-projek pembinaan awam dan juga swasta, Pusat IBS CIDB Malaysia telah mengadakan suatu inisiatif promosi IBS melalui penerbitan secara besar-besaran. Buat pertama kalinya di dalam siri malbex ini, suatu edisi khas IBS Digest iaitu ”IBS DIGEST @ malbex” telah diterbitkan di dalam bentuk suratkhabar mini dan diedarkan secara percuma kepada 15,000 pengunjung ekspo tersebut. Penerbitan tersebut bertujuan untuk memberikan pendedahan asas mengenai IBS seperti metodologi IBS, sejarah, polisi, projek dan aktiviti-aktiviti Pusat IBS seperti latihan dan penerbitan.
Secara ringkasnya, program-program IBS yang diadakan sepanjang malbex2007 ini diyakini dapat membantu para pengunjung untuk lebih memahami IBS dan seterusnya memberi promosi kepada kegunaan yang lebih meluas di dalam industri pembinaan Malaysia. ▐

Lawatan teknikal IBS dan Amalan Terbaik ke tapak projek Grand Mosque, Putrajaya dan rumah contoh Smart and Cool Homes ini telah diadakan pada 17hb Julai 2007. Seramai 25 orang peserta terdiri daripada pegawai CIDB Malaysia, Bahagian Pembangunan Bumiputera, Kementerian Kerja Raya dan syarikat perunding IBS telah menyertai lawatan tersebut yang diketuai oleh Ir Noraini Bahri dari Pusat IBS, CIDB Malaysia. Kontrak bagi pembinaan masjid tersebut adalah berjumlah RM 208 juta dan kontraktor utamanya adalah Ahmad Zaki Resources Berhad. Kompleks masjid yang menggunakan seni reka moden ini mempunyai 2 blok iaitu Blok Masjid dan juga ‘Kiblat Walk’ dengan berkeluasan 60,409m2. Pembinaannya menggunakan kerangka keluli sebagai struktur utama. Kren berkapasiti 500 tan telah digunakan bagi pembinaan kubah masjid. Masjid ini yang berkapasiti 20 ribu orang dijangka akan siap dan mula beroperasi di dalam bulan Mei 2008. Penggunaan komponen IBS seperti kerangka keluli telah dapat mempercepatkan proses pembinaan projek tersebut. Bagi mencapai tempoh penyiapan yang disasarkan, pihak kontraktor telah menggunakan sebanyak 1 kren menara dan 2 kren mobil bagi kerja-kerja pemasangan komponen bangunan. Kesemua komponen kerangka besi utama dibekalkan oleh Tak Seng Engineering Sdn. Bhd. yang mempunyai kilang di di Hulu Langat.
Lawatan diteruskan ke Presint 16, Putrajaya bagi melawat 2 buah rumah yang sedang di dalam pembinaan yang menggunakan sistem Smart & Cool Homes oleh Lucas Works Sdn. Bhd. Sebuah lagi rumah contoh Smart & Cool Homes di Bandar Tasik Kesuma, Beranang turut dilawati. Elemen utama sistem tersebut adalah penggunaan lapisan tayar yang telah diletakkan di lapisan terbawah sebelum lantai di konkrit bagi tujuan mempertingkatkan pengudaraan. Selain daripada itu, rekabentuk lantai tingkat atas juga menggunakan sistem tersebut di mana bentuk beralun di sebelah bawahnya telah dibuktikan dapat mengurangkan ketebalan keseluruhan papak (lantai) serta memperbaiki pengudaraan di dalam rumah.
Kesimpulannya, melalui program lawatan ini, para peserta telah dapat melihat sendiri cara-cara pemasangan dan pembinaan yang menggunakan IBS dan serta Amalan Terbaik. Lawatan ini telah memberi pendedahan yang luas kepada para peserta. Oleh yang demikian, program seumpama ini akan diteruskan oleh Pusat IBS; di mana lebih ramai pihak akan dijemput untuk turut serta. ▐

TECHNOLOGY BRIEF:O-STABLE PANEL SYSTEM
The O-Stable Panel System is a prefabricated system created for versatility to suit any layout and design required by the Architect. The system provides a method of joining pre-cast concrete wall panels onto adjoining column or wall or another pre-cast concrete wall panel without water leakage and with flush surface joints.
The pre-cast wall panels are aligned at a distance apart from corresponding central grid lines to provide a working space for a worker to tighten the starter bars from the pre-cast wall panel with vertical bars to form a vertical construction joint. This construction joint is to accommodate cumulative position overrun from predetermined arrangement of pre-cast wall panels, and to accommodate tolerance dimension of pre-cast wall panels.
At least two pre-cast wall panels are aligned a space apart to form an I-shaped, a T-shaped, an L-shaped or a cross-shaped vertical construction joint.
Diagram 1 and Diagram 2 show that the pre-cast concrete panels are laid in the respective
positions as described above to form L-shape and T-shape vertical construction joints. The said L-shape and T-shape cast-in-situ concrete vertical construction joints will either be flushed or projected out with the adjunction walls as shown in Illustration 1 and Illustration 2.
The completed structure is as shown in Photo 1 and Photo 2.
Panel Dimension: The panel dimension in between grid line A and B as shown in Diagram 1 can be adjusted to any sizes according to the Architect’s layout requirement. O-Stable Panel System not only complies with modular system requirement but also provide versatility in design.
Roman Arch Design: The center pieces of roman arch pre-cast panels are used with concrete wall panel with recess groove lines as shown in Illustration 3 as well as with round columns as shown in Illustration 4. Refer to Photo 3 and Photo 4.
Comfortable & Energy Saving House: The special built-in feature of ventilation holes as
shown in Illustration 2 and Photo 1 allow free flow of air into the house (cross & vertical ventilation); thereby converting outside hot air into cool air.
This system provides some degree of comfort without air-conditioning and has been evaluated and documented by University Technology Mara (UiTM). Our associated company, Baktian Sdn. Bhd., has an MOU with UiTM for continuous improvement of performance through instrumentation and measurement.
A comfortable and energy saving house can be further improved by using aerated concrete panels for all surrounding external walls. This is because aerated concrete provides good thermal insulation if compared to normal density concrete.
The high insulation value of the material is important as energy is saved by cutting both heating and air-conditioning requirement; giving greater comfort in a wide range of climate conditions. ▐

TECHNOLOGY BRIEF:INTRODUCTION TO LIGHTWEIGHT
Contributor: DRN Concrete ResourcesFOAMED CONCRETEFoamed (or cellular) concrete is a type of lightweight concrete made from mixing preformed stable foam into slurry of cement, fine sand and water. The preformed stable foam is simply made by mixing air and foaming chemicals in a foam generator. The hardened material consists of small enclosed air bubbles thereby resulting in a lightweight stable cellular material with densities ranging from as low as 500 kg/m3 to 1600 kg/m3. Because of its varied density, foamed concrete has a wide range of applications ranging from wall blocks and panels, architectural decorative components, landscaping components, insulating roof screeds, trench and reinstatement, road foundations, and void filling.

O-STABLE PANEL SYSTEM
INTRODUCTION TO LIGHTWEIGHT
Principal Applications:
• Lightweight Floor Screed• Lightweight Roof Insulation Screed• Lightweight Block• Lightweight Apron• Lightweight Concrete Road• Lightweight Panel• Lightweight Embankment Fill
ROOFING INSULATION - Low-density lightweight concrete has great thermal insulation properties
TRENCH REINSTATEMENT - Lightweight concrete doesn’t settle, requires no compaction and has excellent load spreading.
BUILDING CONSTRUCTION (panels, blocks, partitions, etc.) - Lightweight concrete density and therefore strength is adjustable during production and can be adjusted to the customer’s choice of form and size.
VOID FILLING - Lightweight concrete is very fluid and will fill every void, even in the most inaccessible areas. Can be applied through a very small opening.
ROAD SUB-BASE - Lightweight concrete used in such purposes, prevents the road from subsiding into the soft earth it was built on.
FLOOR CONSTRUCTION - Lightweight concrete levels, raises, isolates, speeds up and reduces the cost of making floors.
FIRE BREAKS - Lightweight concrete is inflammable and therefore prevents fire from spreading when used to fill spaces between floors and ceilings.
Lightweight foam concrete’s biggest advantage is the fact that it can be produced right on the spot of construction, which is possible thanks to the foam generator, a compact tool which ensures constant foam production and quality control. The produced foam can be used for casting into the necessary shapes, or can be pumped straight to where it is required.
Foamed Concrete for Floor Topping.
One of the most popular use of foamed concrete in building construction is as floor topping on structural slabs. Due to its low density and cellular structure, foamed concrete has very good thermal insulation and fire protection qualities and reduces the overall weight of the floor. A 1000 kg/m3 foamed concrete may have more than 50% air content lowering its thermal conductivity thus reducing heat transmission significantly through the floor. Foamed concrete
has lower thermal conductivity than normal concrete and makes it an ideal insulating material.
General thermal conductivity of cellular concrete compared to normal concrete.
Bulk density (kg/m3)
Thermal conductivity(W / m deg C )
1,000 0.30
1,100 0.34
1,200 0.38
2,400 ( normal concrete )
1.83
The table above shows that thermal conductivity of cellular concrete at 1,000 kg/m3 is only 18% that of normal concrete. In addition foamed concrete is basically an inert non-combustible material unlike many other types of insulation which may degrade over time or burn toxic fumes in case of fire. Another advantage of using foamed (or cellular) concrete as floor or roof insulation topping is the ease at which the material can be laid. This is because of its high flow characteristics which require no compaction since the material is self leveling. This also means that the material can be carried and laid to any floor by light lifting equipment or pumped into place. Due to the fact that thermal insulation is related to moisture content, it is better if the top of the placed (or hardened) foam concrete is surface protected by a light expandable screed. This will ensure adequate protection not only to the underlying slab but also to the insulating layer of foamed concrete.
Foamed concrete (Portafoam System) easily placed on a concrete floor slab for insulation and raising the floor level. (Project: Kuching International Airport – Sarawak ).
Foamed concrete can also be mixed with other suitable waterproofing agents to make it more impervious. In addition a layer of waterproof membrane in the form of a polymer modified mortar can also be applied on the finished foam concrete surface as protection. Foamed
concrete can also be used in combination with polystyrene slabs where additional thermal insulation is required in very hot weather.
Hardened foamed concrete insulation layer can be subjected to light traffic after 24hrs ( image -foreground ). Any further protective layer / coating or screed can be carried out within 20 hrs. Compressive strength of foamed concrete reaches 70% in just 7 days and increases in strength up to 91 days.
Foamed concrete is an economical and versatile insulation material to work with and can be produced and placed easily on any substrate including concrete slabs. It is the insulation material of the future for innovative contractors and builders.
Specifications for Insulation:
Density range : 500 – 1200 kg/m3
Strength @ 28 days – 0.5 – 3.5 N/mm2
Placement – by gravity or pump onto substrate.
Notes : A layer of waterproofing membrane can be laid first before foamed concrete is being poured if the substrate is to be kept dry. Another layer of screed compatible with foamed concrete or a flexible coating can be applied to the top of the foamed concrete after it has hardened. ▐
