Крупноформатные керамические блоки. Особенности кладки поризованных блоков

Large-format porous ceramic blocks are a wall material used for building houses. These blocks are unique in that they contain numerous small air-filled cavities created by adding wood shavings to the clay mixture, which burns off during firing. Porotherm hollow ceramic blocks are made from high-quality clay. Their shape and void arrangement are designed to allow for the rapid construction of walls with excellent thermal insulation properties. Using Porotherm blocks in construction significantly speeds up the construction process thanks to their large format and light weight—one block can replace up to 14 bricks in a masonry structure. The tongue-and-groove joint allows porous blocks to fit together perfectly without filling the vertical joints with mortar. The first row of blocks is laid using a 2-3 cm thick cement-sand mortar; subsequent blocks are laid using a thin layer of special masonry adhesive.
