This section presents projects of houses, cottages, baths, garages in the construction technology of the two most popular types of cellular concrete: aerated concrete and foam concrete. It is important to know that although these two building materials belong to the same class of concrete, they are two completely different products in terms of structure, production method and masonry technology.

A house that combines the motifs of an old European rural cottage and cutting-edge facade solutions, layouts and technologies. Floor-to-ceiling windows, a brick-lined facade, large stained-glass bay windows - these are the characteristics that immediately attract attention and distinguish this house from the general range of standard buildings. No less magnificent are the interior layouts of this small house in the development spot. open type terrace, further hallway and wardrobe. From the hallway you can immediately go into a huge living room or turn into the kitchen. The living room is visually separated by an arch from the dining room. The dining room is separated from the kitchen, thus the smells and noises from the kitchen do not penetrate either the dining room or the living room. To the left of the living room is a large bedroom and a boiler room. The boiler room, in full compliance with the norms and rules for the operation of gas boilers, has a separate entrance from the street and a room volume of more than 15 cubic meters. Separately, I would like to say about the living room, which structurally has a second light, and it also provides a place for a fireplace. On the attic floor there are two large bedrooms and an office. The bedrooms are made in a block design, that is, for each of them there are separate bathrooms. Residents can use partitions to divide these rooms into a bathroom and a wardrobe. The finished project of a house made of aerated concrete PA-1644G is an excellent example of modern architectural design of country houses.

Foam block and aerated concrete are one of the most popular building materials. Why did they become so popular and how do they differ from bricks we are used to?
Advantages of house projects from foam blocks and aerated concrete:
- Price - with a wide variety of building materials, the foam block has the most good combination price / quality for the construction of cottages;
- Quality - foam blocks and blocks of aerated concrete, as a rule, the products of large factories. Well-established control at all stages allows the gas block to have an accurate geometry, constant strength and heat specifications. Now there are many manufacturers of foam blocks on the market, we recommend choosing only autoclaved foam blocks for construction;
- Durability - aerated concrete blocks can have high frost resistance (up to 100 cycles or more);
- Heat engineering - a number of manufacturers offer low-density gas blocks D400, which do not require insulation in most climatic zones;
- Manufacturability - the gas-block is very simple in laying and does not demand high qualification of the bricklayer. Easily cut and processed, high laying speed and, as a result, a small amount of waste and an acceptable price for laying foam concrete blocks;
- Environmental friendliness - the composition of the gas block is simple - cement, ash (gypsum or sand), aluminum powder. No harmful resins and other additives.
Considering all the above points - choosing a house project from foam blocks or aerated concrete blocks, you are doing right move. In our catalog of projects you will find many options for houses using aerated concrete and foam blocks. Various layouts, style solutions, cottage or double storey. Projects of houses from foam blocks with an attic and projects of houses from aerated concrete with a garage.
Foam block loft
Projects of houses with an attic by themselves economical solutions, but the use of foam block or aerated concrete enhances this gain.
By choosing a house project from a foam block with an attic, you win in the area of \u200b\u200bthe walls, and hence the final cost of the house. Using a low-density gas block D400 saves on insulation, because for most climatic zones it does not require additional insulation. Due to the ease of installation - we save on work.
The foam block is perfectly cut. Armed with a special tool, you can easily make gables under the attic floor. The remaining trimmings are used in subsequent rows of masonry.
The ease of processing blocks allows you to perform the complex forms of the facade, incorporated in the project of the house.
Garage in the house
Let's first decide whether the garage is cold or warm. The size of the garage is also important, for one car or two cars, or maybe more. Will there be technical rooms in the garage that require a certain temperature regime.
If the garage is cold, then any material on the market that provides the necessary load-bearing capacity is suitable for us.
A warm garage in the house requires a different approach. The temperature in the garage can be lower than the usual +18-20C, unless of course you are going to use the garage as a workshop or a warm pantry during the cold season. If the planned temperature in the garage should be above 0, then the foam block and gas block perfect solution for a given temperature regime.
The foam block during the construction of the garage does not require additional insulation.
Any project of a foam block house with an attic and a garage from our catalog can be easily changed according to your wishes. The house can be supplemented ground floor. Our catalog includes single-storey and two-storey cottages both with basement and attic floor. If you didn't find suitable option we will always make a selection of projects from our catalog for free according to your wishes or offer you an individual design of a foam block cottage.
A foam block house is an excellent choice, subject to the construction technology. The erected structure will meet safety requirements, will become a reliable and durable housing for the whole family. The material itself will not hit the budget and will allow the construction to be completed as soon as possible.
If you have building skills, free time, you can try to build with your own hands. You can entrust the matter to professionals who will provide a wide range of services: from choosing the best option in the catalog of ready-made houses to the complete completion of construction and finishing works. Below we consider the nuances of self-erection.
Varieties of foam concrete
There are several characteristics of the material on which the construction process depends:
The density of foam concrete, which determines its purpose. It is denoted by the letter D, next to which the number of kilograms per 1 cubic meter is written. m. material.
The structural block is distinguished by high density (about 1-1.2 tons per cubic meter, D1000), structural and heat-insulating block (density ranges from 600 to 900 kg), heat-insulating (300-500 kg per cubic meter, designation D300).
Block type. The manufacturing technology makes it possible to obtain blocks of various sizes, with voids inside, with grooves and ridges, a special U-block for the construction of a reinforced belt and jumpers.
Block type. The second-rate block has chips and surface defects, it may be of irregular geometry. If laying is carried out using cement mortar, irregularities are leveled by seams.
When glued, the block must be of excellent geometry. A block of the second grade can be used for the construction of outbuildings, for laying gables, where sawing is required.
The size of the cells in the structure of the material. The pattern is simple: the larger the cells, the higher thermal insulation properties but lower strength.
block storage conditions. Foam concrete is not afraid high humidity unlike aerated concrete. However, its technical characteristics high level humidity is getting worse.
Color, which in the case of quality products should be uniform throughout the block.
Foundation of a concrete house
Building a house from foam blocks begins with foundation work. The type of foundation is selected based on the proposed structure and specific regional characteristics of the soil. For this, engineering and geological work is carried out.
When arranging the most popular strip foundation land works are being carried out. The bottom of the resulting trench is strengthened, a sand cushion is arranged on it, reinforcement is carried out, if necessary, formwork is installed and concrete mixture is poured.
In hot weather, concrete requires periodic wetting. It will reach its nominal strength in 28 days under ideal conditions. Then it will be necessary to build a basement, for example, from solid red brick, make waterproofing works and you can start laying walls.
Walling
The stage implies knowledge of several essential aspects at once.
Secondly, you need to choose the right masonry adhesive. Some block manufacturers offer specific brands of adhesive, or even have their own proprietary adhesive. The technology of masonry work also needs to be clearly known.
You can also use normal cement-sand mortar, however, it will create cold bridges in the wall, so glue is preferable. The choice depends on the skills of the installer, the thickness of the seam, the financial capabilities of the developer.
All work must be carried out at an ambient temperature of at least +5°C. Professionals recommend using special tools: a notched trowel, carriages of appropriate sizes.
Thirdly, foam concrete masonry must be reinforced in order to avoid subsequent cracking. The first row of blocks is reinforced, every 3-4 rows, all openings, installation sites for floor beams and the Mauerlat of the roofing system.
Reinforcement technology depends on the type of material used. It can be mesh or reinforcement. Consider the option with fittings. You can use fiberglass or steel reinforcement, the diameter of which is 6-8 mm.
Using a wall chaser, a small groove is cut on the block. Then it is thoroughly cleaned of the remnants of the block and dust. Then it is filled with glue, into which reinforcing bars are pressed. Excess glue is removed.
The distance from the edge of the block to the strobe must be at least 6 cm; with a wall thickness of 200 mm, one strobe is enough. If the thickness is greater, make two. The corners are made smooth so that the reinforcement does not bend almost at a right angle (this leads to a violation of its structure).
Despite the fact that foam concrete blocks are impressive in size, working with them is quite simple, especially if there is an assistant. Special requirements are imposed on masonry from this material, if you know them, you can provide yourself with a reliable and long-lasting residential building.
Floor options for a foam concrete house
One of the features of foam concrete is fragility, since the material is sensitive to high and local pressure of any structures on it. In places where the load is especially high (openings, rafter system, floors), the arrangement of a protective reinforcing belt is required.
The latter allows you to distribute the local load over the entire length of the walls. The belt can be made of concrete, pouring it into a pre-prepared formwork with reinforcement. Or use the U-blocks designed for this, which, among other things, reduce the heat loss of the structure.
As a flooring material one-story houses often used wooden beams, for two-story and houses with an attic - hollow reinforced concrete slabs.
Roof installation
The arrangement of the roof of a house built from foam concrete blocks takes place in several stages and does not differ fundamentally from a similar process for houses made of other materials. The nuances of the work will depend on the type of roof structure chosen.
The roof can be shed. original version, which not so long ago was used exclusively for outbuildings such as garages, sheds, etc.
The gable roof will the best option For country houses from foam blocks. hip and attic options good for houses with year-round living.
Insulation of the house from foam blocks
Some projects of houses from foam blocks do not imply insulation work. Often, construction is carried out using a block of the D600 brand, which has excellent structural and thermal insulation characteristics.
However, the need for insulation may still arise. Then it is more expedient to use vapor-permeable thermal insulation materials, since foam concrete is a "breathing" element. Among them, first of all, it is worth noting mineral wool produced in the form of plates and rolls.
When choosing a specific option, it is necessary to be guided by the principle: the vapor permeability of the insulation must be equal to or greater than that of the wall block.
Exterior finish
There are several options for finishing houses from foam blocks:
- brick cladding;
- installation of vinyl or metal siding;
- lining installation;
- decorative plastering.
Exterior decoration of the facade gives the whole house an aesthetic appearance. In addition, it allows you to hide all the irregularities of the masonry itself, to give additional protection by cold.
The main requirement for the arrangement of facades is to ensure proper ventilation. Therefore, special structures are mounted, called ventilated facades. Or decorative plaster specialized for foam blocks is used.

In a short time we build warm, reliable and durable buildings. The minimum life of the cottage is 70-80 years, and with strict observance of the construction technology, the house will last more than a century.
Construction features
Foam block - molded cellular concrete, made from a mixture of sand, cement and water with the addition of a foaming agent. It has a homogeneous porous structure with closed pores isolated from each other. Due to this, the material has thermal conductivity and vapor permeability that are not inferior to natural wood. Foam block houses "breathe", independently regulate the humidity in the room, maintaining a comfortable microclimate. They are light weight, rodent and insect resistant, fire retardant and compatible with all interior and exterior finishing materials. Over the years, the strength of foam concrete only increases.
Advantages of building houses from foam blocks:
- Fast construction time (from 70 days),
- Mechanical strength, resistance to stress,
- High thermal insulation and sound absorption,
- no shrinkage,
- vapor permeability,
- Reliability and durability.
One of the main advantages of foam block houses is the cost. They do not need a powerful foundation and the use of expensive special equipment, do not require additional thermal insulation. The material is easy to process: it can be chipped, sawn, milled, giving the desired shape. This allows you to implement any architectural and design solutions.
