Technical Information - Material Properties

 
   
       
Material Densities:
  

Non-structural applications range from 300 - 700kg p/cm density
Structural applications range from 800 - 1600kg p/cm density
Compressive Strength:
  
Structural range 9 - 25 Nmm2 - Mp
Tensile Strength:
  
3 - 9 Nmm2 - Mp
Modulus of Elasticity:
  
1,200 - 10,000 Nmm2 - Mp
Shrinkage in 28 Days:
  
0.2%
Water proof:
   From 80mm thickness
Fire Resistance:
  

For non-load bearing walls 1 hour for every 50mm thickness
For load bearing walls & floors 1 hour every 100mm thickness

Thermal Conductivity:
   W/mk is the metric value of the thermal conductivity, which is given by
the letter "K", thermal resistance "R" is derived: R = t/k, where
R is the thermal resistance and t is thickness in (mm)
Example: for 100 mm of thickness of material, t = 100. Therefore the
lowest density, where K = 0.079, we have: R 100 : 0.079 = 1.26
