Echelon 40cm Lightweight Masonry Units
Echelon 40cm Lightweight Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU) – Description:
The Echelon 40cm lightweight block is a large-format concrete masonry unit designed for structural and architectural applications where reduced weight and thermal efficiency are important. Manufactured using a blend of lightweight aggregates, this block offers improved handling, reduced structural load, and enhanced fire resistance compared to standard-weight CMUs.
Typical Features:
Nominal Size: 400mm (length) x 200mm (height) x 190mm (depth) (Exact dimensions may vary slightly by manufacturer or region)
Weight: Lighter than standard concrete blocks due to the use of expanded shale, clay, or slate aggregates
Core Type: Hollow core (typically 2- or 3-core configuration), enhancing insulation and ease of reinforcement
Compressive Strength: Meets or exceeds CSA and ASTM standards for structural use
Applications: Load-bearing and non-load-bearing walls, foundation walls, commercial and institutional buildings
Finish: Smooth or split-face finishes available; paintable or compatible with veneers
Fire Rating: Up to 4-hour fire resistance, depending on unit thickness and configuration
Sound Transmission: Good STC (Sound Transmission Class) rating, useful for noise control
