The following article reviews a new masonry energy-efficient erection technology using hollow blocks termosblocks, which provides construction of vertically continuous and horizontally intermittent insulating layer. Thermal insolent insets are placed inside the inner cavities of the block. The study is aimed to establish the boundaries of using this technology. Therefore, central compression tests were conducted in order to determine the tensile strength of the block. Also, a reduced thermal resistance and energy-efficiency of a masonry fragment was calculated. In order to verify thermal engineering model, an experiment was conducted in which the temperature inside the structure was measured using contact temperature sensors. Additional control of temperature fields spreading was proceeded using thermal imager. On the basis of the obtained data, termosblocks masonry operational characteristics were estimated, and the study result was defined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
