How to make lightweight aggregate blocks

An indispensable material for the construction of small buildings are considered to be lightweight aggregate blocks. Due to the fact that in size they are somewhat more traditional building stone, the use of these blocks significantly reduces the time spent on the erection of the structure.

You will need

• water;
• - sand;
• - expanded clay;
• - cement;
• - vibrostanok;
• - steel plate.

Instruction

1. Cook required for the manufacture of lightweight aggregate blocks of components (proportion of their ratio of the following: sand – 3 parts, the water is from 0,8 to 1 part cement 1 part and 6 parts of clay). In the mixer pour water, add clay, and then cement and sand. Mix all these components in a few minutes. After turning off the mixer the mixture should be of such concentration that it could take in hand, that is, it should not be liquid, and not crumbling in his hands.
2. Form lightweight aggregate block in vibrolance. For this purpose the molding, place the steel plate and fill required to complete the forming of the aggregate amount of the mixture. Then turn on the engine for vibration of the upper part of vibrolance. Remove excess aggregate mixture.
3. To lift steel plate with formed expanded clay lightweight concrete block, twist the arm vibrolance. Send the finished block for drying.
4. Dry lightweight aggregate block for two days. As a rule, after this time the unit will be ready.
5. After drying the blocks remove the steel plate and the unit is ready.
