Opis

Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC), known in the UK as Aircrete, has gained worldwide recognition as a high-quality, innovative construction material that has been extensively used in a wide range of residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. Innovations and developments in AAC production and usage are covered extensively in the proceedings of the two-day international conference organized by the Concrete and Masonry Research Group at Kingston University, held in 2006. The conference deals with issues such as raw materials, manufacturing techniques, and product characteristics that satisfy ever more demanding energy, design, structural, and environmental requirements for sustainable development.
