Introduction
Autoclaved aerated blocks, or AAC blocks, are an innovative product that provides extra strength and robustness to the building. The blocks are fabricated using quartz, aluminium powder, lime, gypsum, cement and water. This green building material is lightweight, load-bearing, highly insulating, and three times lighter than traditional building blocks, i.e., red blocks. Hence, let’s understand how the sound insulation property of AAC Blocks works and why it is so resilient in the modern-day era.
Description
As homeowners or home builders, we never want to compromise our privacy, and that’s where AAC blocks come to the rescue. Its ductile walls help in reducing excessive noise from the outside environment and offer peaceful living. However, the tight air pockets and sound absorption techniques with STC ratings up to 45 dB (decibel) act as a barrier, resulting in almost soundproof interiors. With the fast development of housing projects and apartment complexes, especially in smaller locations, sequestration is becoming ever more crucial. During the manufacturing of AAC blocks, the hydrogen gas releases millions of microscopic air cells, giving the blocks a honeycomb-like shape. In addition, reinforce the blocks by using high-pressure steam in an autoclave. The AAC blocks have 80% air capacity, making them the lightest walling material on the market [weighing 1/4th the weight of clay bricks]. As a result, the air spaces in AAC blocks are sealed, preventing noise from travelling through the walls, and these blocks have better sound insulation than other construction blocks of the same thickness.
The acoustic properties of AAC blocks make them ideal for schools, hospitals, hotels, offices, and other structures that require acoustic isolation.
Conclusion
In today’s world, rapid population growth leads to a significant increase in noise pollution, a major source of concern for residents of municipal or urban areas. This circumstance emphasises the significance of sound-absorbing materials. As a result, using high-density materials in a construction project will likely result in a calm living environment for the residents. AAC blocks are excellent at reducing noise and providing people with a peaceful and relaxing living environment.
