About this document
Thermally Efficient Concrete Blocks by aduquego is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document summarizes research on developing concrete blocks with improved thermal insulation properties for use in hot climates like the Gulf region. It discusses current construction practices using single-skin walls that have poor insulation. Alternative cavity and double-skin wall systems provide better insulation but are more expensive. The document reviews research on developing lightweight concrete blocks containing holes or voids in different arrangements to increase insulation. Studies found blo
