Perfect method of joining AAC blocks near column joints. AAC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) blocks are lightweight, precast concrete blocks composed of sand, cement, lime, and aluminum powder. They undergo a unique autoclaving process that creates air bubbles throughout, resulting in a highly porous and lightweight material. AAC blocks are known for their insulation properties, low weight, and ease of handling during construction. They offer excellent thermal and sound insulation, making them popular for residential and commercial buildings. Their eco-friendly nature, energy efficiency, and durability make them a sustainable choice in construction. #aacblocks #construction #civilengineering #civilengineer #civilconstruction #buildings #architects #architecture #engenharia #civilengenharia

What about the safety precautions for your employees ? PPE is it only an option ?

The purpose of providing rebar vanishes if it is not properly ‘enveloped’ in mortar.. rather a pre-holed column with grouted rebar would prove better with a ‘mortar for purpose’

Not made for earthquake resistance... those bars MAY have an area of 15% max in contact with that peanut butter mortar. Not a believer for high stress situations.

It’s overkill and it’s very close to the joints. Should be at least 50+mm below no?
