Concrete, autoclaved aerated: Length changes due to moisture variations (NT BUILD 444)

Abstract

SCOPE

This Nordtest method describes how to measure dimensional variations in autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) exposed to different humidities. The method is primarily developed for testing freshly manufactured blocks or components, with special reference to quality declaration work at the factories, but the method can also be used for testing autoclaved aerated concrete cured over an extended period.
