Hello everyone, I'm Jia Jia, and I know a little bit about interior design. Today, I will give you some advantages and disadvantages of ceramsite backfilling, hoping to help you make a more suitable decision for your own home in the decoration.
Ceramsite, which may sound like a trendy snack, is actually a lightweight, porous material that is often used in the construction industry, especially in backfilling of indoor floors. It's made from various clay minerals calcined into spherical particles at high temperatures, which looks a little like chocolate chips, but don't really eat them as a snack!
Pros:1Lightweight: Ceramsite is much lighter than traditional sand and gravel, which is beneficial in reducing structural stress. For high-rise buildings, it is simply a great power to reduce the load!
2.Thermal insulation: The ceramsite itself has good thermal insulation performance due to its porous interior. It can be said that you have added a small padded jacket to the floor of your home.
3.Sound absorption and noise reduction: The porous structure of ceramsite also helps to absorb sound waves, which can play a role in reducing noise to a certain extent. It's like a little secretary who helps you "shh
4.Convenient construction: Because the ceramsite is light and easy to handle, the construction is naturally much more convenient than the sand and gravel, which saves a lot of effort for the construction team partners.
5.Good water permeability: The ceramsite drains very well, so it is great if it is used in basements or floors that need to be drained.
6.Environmentally friendly and harmless: As a green material, ceramsite does not contain toxic substances, which is in line with modern people's pursuit of health and environmental protection, and can be said to be both residential and environmentally friendly.
Cons: 1*Relatively high: Compared with the traditional sand and gravel backfill material, the ** of ceramsite will be higher. (But given the overall benefits, it's also worth the investment!)）
2.Relatively low bearing capacity: Compared with materials such as stone sand, ceramsite bearing capacity is slightly weaker, so in terms of load-bearing, other structural reinforcements may be required.
3.The construction technology is relatively high: although the construction is convenient, it still needs a skilled master to ensure that the ceramsite is laid evenly, otherwise the ground will be uneven.
4.Large amount of cement: In the process of ceramsite backfilling, in order to ensure stability, more cement is often required for fixation, which also indirectly increases the cost.
Hey, renovation is a technical job, and every choice has to be carefully weighed. Secretly tell you, although the ceramsite backfill has these shortcomings, but the advantages are quite attractive, especially for the pursuit of a comfortable home environment for modern people, spend a few small money for big comfort, cost-effective!Bargain!
