Introduction

Aestech LDT introduces cutting-edge technology that revolutionizes design and architecture through the utilization of lightweight, self-supporting panels as enclosing structures. These panels, designed as final products with specific color solutions and textures, offer architects and designers the flexibility to implement diverse architectural designs swiftly. The lightweight nature of these panels enables construction under non-standard building conditions, providing an excellent opportunity to create homes with ready-made designer solutions efficiently.

Construction and Composition

Aestech’s innovative panel comprises two ceramic granite plates with a viscoelastic membrane for noise reduction, sandwiching a layer of thermal and sound insulation material, which can be either mineral wool or extruded polystyrene. This design not only ensures structural integrity but also proves to be a cost-effective alternative compared to traditional aerated block technologies, reducing both building material costs and installation services expenses. Furthermore, the slim profile of the panel allows for an increase in useful area by reducing the thickness of enclosing structures.

Features and Benefits

The Aestech lightweight panels boast a multitude of features and benefits:

• No Wet Works: The finished product comes with a predetermined texture and color, eliminating the need for additional wet works.
• Bending Resistance: High strength against bending ensures the longevity and durability of the panel.
• Eco-friendliness: The panels are non-toxic to the environment, aligning with sustainable building practices.
• Fast Installation: Swift installation, offering flexibility in construction timing.
• UV Resistance: The surface maintains its color and texture, unaffected by prolonged sun exposure.
• Moisture and Frost Resistance: With minimal water absorption (less than 0.1%), the panel exhibits superior frost-resistant characteristics.
• Increased Useful Area: Reduced wall thickness translates to an increased interior area.
• Resistance to Mold and Fungi: The panel is not prone to the formation of microorganism colonies, ensuring a healthy living environment.
• Wide Range of Colors: A variety of colors and textures cater to diverse aesthetic preferences.
• Resistance to Temperature Changes: Suitable for various climatic conditions, showcasing resistance to sudden temperature changes.

Considerations in Panel Selection

While Aestech’s lightweight panels offer a wide array of colors and textures, thoughtful consideration is essential. Factors such as geographical location and plate color contribute to the overall effectiveness:

• Dark Colors: Modern aesthetics, but heat-absorbent, leading to facade surface heating.
• Light and Bright Shades: Emphasize the facade and blend well in sunny regions, offering a visually appealing ambiance.

Installation Guidelines

The characteristics of Aestech’s panels facilitate a rapid and high-quality installation process. Proper insulation and sealing of joints around the wall openings, ensuring a more airtight interior, are imperative. Joints are meticulously designed to withstand various loads throughout the building’s service life, encompassing wind loads, building movement, operational loads, and human presence. The installation also involves careful consideration of joint sizes based on specific designs and external factors.

Properties

Aestech lightweight panels exhibit properties such as UV protection, acoustic insulation, and thermal insulation, making them versatile and suitable for a range of architectural applications. This groundbreaking technology not only enhances the efficiency of construction processes but also elevates the possibilities in design and architecture for the 21st century.
