Single-family house - Right choice Poroton?

Hello,

- the thing with the fastening is correct, you really need special plugs for that. (It's even worse with a prefabricated house with wooden studs)
- What do you mean by that? Very quickly very hot and then cold again? I can't confirm that... But these also come from an attic apartment with insulation from the 70s (So "no" insulation), we couldn't sleep there in the summer anymore, it was a sauna.

I took a closer look at a 36.5' T7 MW a few days ago, there is enough material available for fastening. A larger T8 will, in my opinion, really make the situation lousy.

Evening

Morning,

- Attaching things to the interior walls --> a disaster
- Lots of insulation and little mass means - beware of a negatively charged word - barracks climate.

Best regards, Barossi

I always wonder where stuff like this comes from. Yes, with lightweight Poroton you need a few extra anchors if you really want to hang heavy things. In our current house, all walls are made of Poroton hollow bricks, the slightly heavier ones. There the regular anchors hold perfectly without any problems.

Mass? Have you ever calculated the wall weights? Roughly estimated, a 17.5 KS wall weighs about 260 kg/m^2, the 36 cm Poroton T9 wall weighs about 240 kg/m^2. Does that really make a big difference...
If you, of course, compare a 24 cm KS wall with a 24 cm Poroton wall, the comparison looks different. But with KS they always told me the big advantage was the thin wall thickness. Nobody wanted to build 24 cm there.

KS offers precisely the advantage that it is extremely compressive resistant, allowing thin walls. But you pay for that by giving up the option to hide sewage pipes, ventilation, etc. inside the wall. You then have them nicely boxed in front of your face while they would have been hidden inside the 24-36 cm Poroton wall.

Many greetings,

Andreas

He wants to build here with a 17.5 Poroton wall. So half as much mass as a 36.

But he wants to build here with a 17.5 Poroton wall. So half as much mass as a 36.

Again! Wrong! I have said several times that I am not fixed on building like that if the construction company does it. You should stick to the facts if you want to report something!!

Boy, you simply didn't understand what my statement was about. In that respect, you missed the point.

Here, 17.5 Poroton should be compared with 17.5 KS and not 17.5 KS with 36 Poroton.

In that respect, it was not about you, but about Andreas, so that he doesn't misinterpret anything.

Build with whatever you want.
