Original Abstract

The requirements of today's society in the area of properties of building materials are increasing all the time. From point of view of masonry construction it means first thermal and acoustic insulation properties. In the case of improvement of thermal technical properties of masonry construction is possible to use external thermal insulation systems or build in thermal insulation layer directly into construction. Integration of thermal insulating material into cavities of blocks is an alternative production technology of thermal insulating ceramic blocks. Mechanical stability of the block provide the ceramics body. Thermal insulation material in block cavities provides mainly thermal and acoustic insulating properties of masonry blocks (construction). This paper describes the possibility of using a wide range of insulation materials (alternative natural insulation, conventional insulation materials) as an integrated insulation layer in modern ceramic blocks with good thermal insulation properties.

Keywords

Masonry constructions, thermal conductivity, green insulations, natural fibers, waste fibers.
