RGB
are a UK distributor of Ytong VHP non-load bearing panels,
designed to span vertically between two floors or horizontally
between two columns or shear wall. Solid partition walls
with little own weight, they can be erected quickly
and easily. The prefabricated panels are simply dry-assembled
on site, and offer exceptional insulation, saving energy
and making the entire building more comfortable. The
high thermal insulation guarantees low energy consumption
in winter, and even helps to keep temperatures down
in summer.
Compared
with concrete, the same thickness of panel provides
remarkable fire protection. After around 6 hours with
a 1000˚C fire on one side of normal concrete, the
temperature next door will be 270˚C. On the other
side of the aerated concrete, however, the temperature
is a much more manageable 68˚C. This protects highly
flammable goods from spontaneous combustion, and vice-versa
- should flammable materials combust for any reason,
the fire will be much easier to contain.
