Universal applicability :

The wide range of densities and consequently their different thermal Eco-Friendly Building Products
and structural properties, make
SHS Foam Concrete equally suitablefor use:
F As reinforced load bearing in cast-in-situ, pre-cast and roofs in
low-rise building.
F Even pre-cast, cast-in-situ, can be used for load bearing low-rise
construction.
F Non Load bearing internal or external walls in high raise buildings.
F Industrial floors, commercial floors, and residential floors.
F Thermal insulation of building roofs.
F Superior to other alternative materials: Cellular Light Weight Concrete / Foam Concrete
SHS Foam concrete is superior in performance, more eco-friendly and cost
effective in comparison to other conventional available alternative materials. Unique Features of ...
F It can be produced in a wide range of density from 400 kgs to 1800 kgs/Cum. The materi-
Available Our Product Range : al of density up to 600 kgs/cum is normally used for providing thermal insulation. The density
of 600 kgs to 1000 kgs / cum is used for Non-structural masonry, above 1200 kgs/ cum is used
1. BUILDING BLOCKS for structural applications including reinforced elements.
a. Load Bearing F It may be cast-in-situ into a complete structure of the walling and or roofing elements of a
b. non load Bearing structure F It can be made into Pre-cast elements whether reinforced or non reinforced.
2. PRE-CAST ELEMENTS Advantages of SHS Foam Concrete / Cellular Light Weight Concrete :
a. Lintels F Reduction of dead load: Unstable ground condition or desire to add extra floors on to exist-
ing structure, often limits application of normal dense concrete. Under utilization of available
b. Partition Walls FAR is one consequence or the other possibility being the introduction of Light Weight Concrete.
3. CAST-IN-SITU WALLS Lightest possible dead load is also highly appreciated for economy in structural design in high
Earth quake areas.

F Material Saving: SHS Foam concrete made of consists Cement, Sand, Fly ash, water,
Protein based Foam Agent and some Fillers. In multi story fyed construction, Partition
walls, cast-in-situ, pre-cast, floor screeds and other non load Bearing building ele-
ments are to be made in foam concrete, there by substantially reducing. The
dead load of the structure.
F Saving the Transport cost : Reduce the weight of material
More details Contact : imply lesser transport cost expenses. F Ease of Handling:
SHS Blocks/ pre cast elements can be handled manually in
large dimensions, In comparison with other conventional
building elements.

 The production process of SHS foam concrete or its use does not release any harm-
ful effluents. To ground, water, or air (unlike smoke of brick kilns and running of top soil and air
in production of bricks).
SHSFoam concrete due to its low weight is ideal for making partitions. The use of our
products for this purpose will reduce the need of Plywood / wood partitions. The consequently
will result in reduction in deforestation and will benefit environment.
Thermal Insulation
Air is known as to be the best insulation material available. Air voids, if smaller than 2 mm
each, consequently increase thermal insulation substantially. Normal Aggregate concrete has a
specific thermal conductivity of 2.1 W/mK, compared to 0.405 only for 1200 kgs/cum Foam
Concrete.
To offer identical thermal insulation as a 100 mm thick Foam Concrete walls, the equiva-
lent thickness of density concrete would have to be more than 5 times thicker (i.e. 500 mm) and
ten times heavier.
F Fire Protection: Fire rating of SHS foam concrete products is far superior to other conven-
tional walling materials. A 100 mm thick wall of 1200 kgs/cum SHS foam concrete or pre-cast
elementsoffer a fire endurance of 4 hours.
Moreover, there are no dangerous fumes, or spread of fire as experienced with other material-
shaving rigged insulation materials often the reason for loss of lifeof entrapped individuals due
to toxic fumes during fires.
F Possess excellent Sound reduction capacity: Sound Transmission class (STC) 38dB to 48dB
for 75mm to 230 block index. Inherent sound insulation properties make it ideal for controlling
Noise Transmission between adjoining rooms. A signifi-cant factor governing residents quality
of life..
F Higher sound insulation to be obtained based on the need by giving higher density for spe-
cial applications.
F Reduce Echo effects in an empty room.
Need for thermal insulation in Indian conditions:
F India is tropical country with high day time temperatures, external heat is
transmitted in buildings mainly through roofs, RCC roofs gets heated up faster and store more
heat due to high mass. Inside ambient temperature increase faster, comfort levels of occupants
gets reduced.
CLC Wall
F Thermal behavior of RCC roofs: out side and inside temperature differential is small,
Quantum of heat retained is more due to high mass, heat retention and transmission to
rooms is for longer time, thermally uncomfortable till late in the night.
F Hence roof insulation is necessary.

SHS Foam Concrete In Geo-Technical Construction:
SHS Foam Concrete provides a stable sub-base for the construction of roadways and is there-
fore ideally suited to a number of road and highway applications. Uses in highway/state/rural
construction range from replacement of unsuitable existing soil for load reduction, to the con-
struction of embankments for bridge approaches and ramps. Foam Concrete is a great choice
for backfilling retaining walls and MSE panels, as it imparts no lateral load on the wall and is
less susceptible to settlement. Foam concrete is a viable choice to replace or bridge over poor
soils that are prone to liquefaction under seismic loading.
SHS Foam concrete is an economically viable solution, particularly in large or small volume
applications. Its use can also have an effect on other aspects of construction. Mix designs are
tailor-made for the project and budget requirements.
F No waiting for consolidation of sub soils, eliminating the need for surcharging.
F Removal of minimal amount of soil to be replaced with Foam Concrete.
F Can be applied directly on existing marginal ground such as peat or poor soils.
F Minimal lateral loading enables reduced costs for earth retaining structures.
F Reduce or eliminate the need for piling, sand drains, or grade beams.
F Eliminate the need to correct completed construction,
which has settled.
F Lower maintenance costs because durability of
Foam Concrete and lack of settlements.
