ABSTRACT
Autoclaved aerated concrete block have many advantages when
compared with Brick such as advanced strength to weight ratio, lower coefficient of
thermal expansion, and good sound insulation as a result of air voids within aerated
concrete. This project report is attention to comparison between brick work & AAC
Block work used in our apartment plan. Also, cost analysis of brick work & AAC
Block work.
This project is important in order to obtain required mechanical
properties of the AAC Block & brick work, both specimen properties are tested
under the literature review. Also, cost analysis of super structure in our appartment
plan.
Our Apartment building is three floor with super infrastructure, energy
efficient & green building base.

CONCLUSION
Aerated lightweight concrete is unlike conventional concrete in some mix materials and properties.
Aerated lightweight concrete does not contain coarse aggregate, and it is possess many beneficial such as low
density with higher strength compared with conventional concrete, enhanced in thermal and sound insulation,
reduced dead load in the could result several advantages in decrease structural elements and reduce the transferred
load to the foundations and bearing capacity.
Aerated lightweight concrete have many advantages when compared with conventional concrete such as
advanced strength to weight ratio, lower coefficient of thermal expansion, and good sound insulation as a result
of air voids within aerated concrete. AAC Block have air voids & hence have better fire resisting property
compared to red clay bricks.
