Wood concrete - a unique, environmentally friendly building material

================================================================================

Arbolit: material features

Arbolite, or wood concrete, is an environmentally friendly building material. Nowadays, he, undeservedly forgotten in the 90s, has received a second life thanks to a lot of advantages. The most common form of wood concrete is masonry blocks. This material is widely used in the construction of cottages, cottages.

Composition features

Wood concrete is made from wood chips (up to 90%), high-grade cement and an environmentally friendly hardener. In fact, it is a kind of lightweight concrete. He combined the advantages of wood and stone.

Positive properties of wood concrete

This material perfectly retains heat and provides air exchange, so the cost of heating a house from wood concrete is significantly reduced. In terms of strength, it is not inferior to stone. Wood concrete practically does not rot, so fungus and mold will not form in the walls of the building. It is fire resistant, able to withstand high temperatures - up to 300 degrees.

Arbolite has a low weight, so during construction it is not necessary to pour a foundation from expensive materials, there is no need to use additional equipment to move wood concrete. In terms of volume, one block replaces almost a dozen bricks, therefore, the construction of buildings from this material takes a minimum amount of time. Arbolit, like wood, is easily amenable to mechanical stress: drilling, sawing, so any fasteners can be fixed in it.

Woodblocks perfectly absorb concrete, which ensures their strong adhesion to each other without reinforcement. At the same time, the walls become monolithic, and there is no need to waste time filling cracks, as in the construction, for example, of a house from a bar. When the building shrinks, due to the bending strength of the wood concrete, cracks will not occur. For the same reason, almost immediately after the construction of the box, you can start decorating the walls. It is easy to carry out this process in a wood concrete structure both from the inside and outside of the building. Wood concrete can be finished with any materials: plaster, siding, clapboard. When ennobling the external walls of the house, it is necessary to take care of waterproofing, since the wood concrete consists mainly of wood chips and has a high moisture absorption.

Building a house from wood concrete will save significant funds, since the material itself is inexpensive compared to other analogues. No need to spend large sums on the construction of the foundation and finishing the building. At the same time, wood concrete is an environmentally friendly material, strong and durable. It will always be warm and cozy in a wood-concrete house.

In the modern world, every family wants to live in a good country house! But a modern country house should be environmentally friendly, energy efficient and technologically advanced...
An ideal option for combining all the above qualities of a modern house is Arbolit.

For laying arbolite blocks, it is recommended to use perlite mortar or sawdust-concrete mixture. The use of a cement-sand mortar requires wetting the material before starting work. If this is not done, the wood concrete absorbs water from the solution, which negatively affects the strength of the masonry.

Features of the construction of walls:

• Blocks are stacked in a checkerboard pattern. Bonded masonry is more reliable and durable. To reduce the consumption of the adhesive solution and improve the quality of the masonry, you can use tongue-and-groove arbolite blocks.
• After laying three rows, you need to take a break for a day. After the solution dries, work can be continued. The use of additives that increase the rate of curing allows you to increase the speed of work.
• During the construction of residential buildings from wood concrete, it is recommended to reinforce every fourth row of masonry. To do this, use a polymer mesh or steel reinforcement treated with enamel or other anti-corrosion compounds.

1.4. Roof

For the construction of the roof, it is recommended to use lightweight materials. Both the frame and the roofing must comply with this requirement. The best option for a residential building made of wood concrete would be a gable roof. Such a design perfectly fulfills its functions, does not interfere with the descent of snow and allows you to distribute the weight of the roofing system as evenly as possible on the load-bearing walls of the building.

In addition to double pitched roofs, common types of roofing systems include:

• Four-pitched hip roof. Its design consists of two trapezoidal and two triangular slopes. Such roofing systems are very popular because of their reliability and excellent external characteristics.
• Shed roof. Four slopes, having a triangular shape, are connected at the top point. Properly executed installation and successful selection of materials guarantee an attractive appearance and durability of the roof.

• Mansard roof. The upper slopes will have a gentle slope, and the lower slopes will be steep. A sloping roof allows you to create additional usable space under the roof.
• Roofs of domed and conical type. Vaulted roofs, decorated with turrets, perform rather an aesthetic function. Such designs look very nice on large buildings with level differences.

People living in the cement urban jungle often want to build their own home, which would be free from the disadvantages inherent in urban dwellings. The task is not easy, but there is a solution. This is the construction of a house from wood concrete. The name of the material is unfamiliar to many, although it was developed and standardized back in the 1960s. At that time, 100 factories producing wood concrete were built in the USSR, and the material was quite popular. - This is a type of lightweight concrete, which consists of 90% wood chips, as well as high-grade cement and a hardener - calcium chloride.

Consider the questions that most often arise among people who are in the process of choosing the technology for building a house from wood concrete, as well as the answers that the owners of houses built from wood concrete have already received.

Advantages

90% wood and non-flammable. Arbolit consists of 90% wood and at the same time does not support combustion and does not smolder.

Low thermal conductivity. The wood concrete house is very warm. This will save on heating. In terms of thermal conductivity, it loses only to a house built of wood.

The speed of building a house. In 1.5-2 months, you can build a durable and warm house.

No need to wait for shrinkage. Arbolite blocks are easily sawn, chopped, as the blocks are large - 300 × 200 × 500 mm. The house can be built "in one go".

Allows you to save on the foundation. Arbolite blocks are light, which makes it possible to save on the foundation - both in material and time terms.

The house does not require forced ventilation. A house built of wood concrete has good air exchange, breathes almost like a wooden house. This means that it does not require additional costs for the installation of ventilation and for its operation. In a room made of arbolite blocks, there is never dampness, because arbolite absorbs moisture well and gives it away just as well.

Eco-friendly material. All components that make up wood concrete are environmentally friendly materials: wood, cement, calcium chloride (a chemical additive used in the food industry).

Good adhesion. Or, in other words, good adhesion, allows you to plaster walls from wood concrete without laying an additional mesh.

Additional soundproofing is not required.

myths

Arbolite is fragile. Most often, it seems to people that it is impossible to build a two- or even three-story house from wood concrete. However, it is worth noting that wood concrete quite allows you to build such houses. The main reason is that wood concrete is a fairly durable material, which is similar in density to foam concrete, and even surpasses the density of aerated concrete and some types of wood (for example, spruce).

The project of a house from wood concrete blocks from the company ""

Wood concrete walls will not hold kitchen cabinets. Wood concrete walls are strong and, according to the owner of the house made of wood concrete blocks, it is easy to drive nails into them and screw in self-tapping screws. The walls can also support heavy kitchen cabinets.

The block absorbs a lot of moisture. It's true. Here, manufacturers simply limit the use of wood concrete. So, it is not recommended to use wood concrete in contact with the ground, for example, as a foundation. In order to reduce the moisture absorption of walls built of wood concrete, they must be protected from the external environment. The best way in this case is to plaster the house. It protects the house and allows the walls to breathe.

The house is shrinking. According to GOST, a house made of wood concrete shrinks 0.4%. Moreover, even if shrinkage occurs, the walls will not burst. When shrinking, wood concrete slabs do not burst, but shrink. This is due to the fact that the slab is made of wood chips, which gives a slight elasticity to the wood concrete slab.

It should also be taken into account: so that the house does not give warps and distortions, according to the technology, an unloading armored belt must be laid in the walls.

Lots of marriage. If only arbolite blocks were bought from dishonest manufacturers. If the block was produced without complying with GOST, then instead of wood chips in the wood concrete slab, you can find bark, as well as unground tree knots. It is with such unfortunate manufacturers that the geometry of the block itself often “walks”. And due to this, it will be necessary to increase the thickness of the masonry seams.

The block is externally unattractive / has imperfect geometry. This is not the biggest drawback. Moreover, the house will be plastered and the blocks will not be visible. It is more important to buy wood concrete from trusted manufacturers.

We add that every tenth visitor (12%) is interested in real examples of building a house from wood concrete blocks. At the exhibition "Low-Rise Country", finished houses in real size, built from wood concrete, are offered by the companies "" and "Ekodom".

The year-round exhibition of houses "Low-Rise Country" () is unique in the suburban real estate market. Here you can see most of the currently available construction technologies for building houses in one place - there are more than 12 of them at the exhibition. Look at the house from the outside, go inside to get acquainted with the situation, interior design. Get advice from a representative of the construction company. 40 construction and manufacturing companies present their houses at the exhibition.

Address of the exhibition of houses "Low-rise country":
Moscow region, Kotelniki, Dzerzhinskoe sh. ow. 7/7

DISCOVER YOURSELF:

It's no secret that wood is the most environmentally friendly material. It is easy to breathe and pleasant to live in a wooden house, it is warm and relatively inexpensive. However, it has important drawbacks: it is not durable, as it is prone to decay and burns quickly.

A stone house does not have these disadvantages: it is made of brick or different types of concrete. But such a house deprives you of the opportunity to have a favorable microclimate for life, is deprived of the peculiar aesthetics of a tree, and, of course, many simply cannot afford it.

Wood concrete house is the best composition of wood and concrete!

The optimal structure of wood and concrete makes it possible to implement the construction of country houses that "breathe", are durable, do not burn, save money when heating the house, and also perfectly retain heat inside the house.

Thermal conductivity of a house made of wood concrete 0.08-0.11W / (mK), wood 0.15-0.4W / (mK)

The thickness of the standard arbolite block "tree block" is 40 cm. The walls of such blocks in terms of "warmth" correspond to the walls of logs 50 cm thick. And these are not dry calculations, but real practice. For example, in Siberia, people live in houses made of wood concrete with walls 30 cm thick and they are not additionally insulated. We recommend a block thickness of 40 cm according to the new SNiP standard.

Why does a wood concrete house "breathe" like a wooden one?

Wood concrete walls are porous and almost entirely made of wood, so they have the same breathable properties as solid wood.

Please note, since the wood concrete does not need additional insulation, the "breathing" of the walls is not blocked by a dense "greenhouse" film of insulation and vapor barrier.

A house made of wood concrete is not afraid of fires!

Stone houses have stood for centuries. They will not turn to ashes in 15 minutes in the fire of an accidental fire, unlike wooden ones. Yes, wooden houses are protected by various flame retardants, but it is no secret to anyone that this is a weak protection, and over time it “evaporates”. In addition, no one wants to inhale the toxic fumes of fire-fighting and anti-fungal impregnations.

Wood concrete does not support combustion and is a non-combustible material. The tests carried out show that the wood concrete house is able to resist open fire without additional processing.

A house made of wood concrete is not subject to rotting, fungus and pest infestation!

The wood "stuffing" of the arbolite blocks is hidden under the reliable shell of the concrete shell. It completely protects the tree from mechanical and weather influences. Therefore, the house does not rot and does not lose its appearance.

From wood concrete blocks, a country house can be built in 1 month, and a country cottage in 2 months, without fear for "shrinkage" or seasonal temperature fluctuations!

Houses made of wood concrete blocks do not shrink. This property allows:

• First, build walls very quickly,
• secondly, do not wait a whole year and immediately start finishing.
