Translation abstract
A supermarket made of infra‐lightweight concrete – Proof of stability for a fire wall Infra‐lightweight concrete (ILC) is a special form of lightweight concrete which, due to its low density, possesses improved thermal insulation properties in comparison to normal concrete. ILC facilitates the construction of monolithic, single‐layer building skins without any added thermal insulation or facade cladding. This way, the building components are effectively simplified in comparison to conventionally insulated concrete members and the recyclability is significantly improved. In addition to that, structural elements made of ILC have a reduced CO2 footprint in comparison to conventional composite elements of the building envelope. After 15 years of research and several completed construction projects in the housing and education sector, a commercial retail building has been realized. For this project, an individual approval for a firewall built out of ILC was obtained based on a fire test in combination with a transfer concept based on calculations. This article demonstrates the transfer concept as well as a simplified structural analysis concept for the proof of stability developed for the special application of a firewall.
