Aerated concrete, plan element

Ytong Jumbo

These large-format flat elements with a length of up to 300 cm are suitable for single-shell exterior walls and have good thermal insulation properties. Since they meet increased requirements for dimensional tolerance, they are processed with thin-bed mortar. For these large elements, butt joint mortaring is possible. Smaller fitting elements are installed at the transitions and ends. For the workers, masonry is usually ergonomically carried out with a relocation aid such as a mini crane. In addition to being quick to process, these relatively large elements are also characterised by a very homogeneous surface with a low proportion of joints. Name:
