All Adbri Masonry Litec® masonry products are lightweight product produced using concrete mixes that incorporate up to 85% industrial
by-products. This leads to a reduced carbon footprint from the manufacturing process and from transport of the product. Being 25 to 30% lighter
than traditional masonry products, Litec® masonry products increase productivity, reduces design dead loads and reduces handling issues.
Pallets contain more square metres reducing material handling movements and storage requirements. All Litec® masonry products have
improved fire resistance and a durability grade of Exposure as per AS4455.1.

Technical Information

Standards - All Adbri Masonry concrete blockwork is manufactured to AS/
NZS4455.1 - Masonry Units and tested to AS/NZS4456 - Masonry Units and
Segmental Pavers/:Methods of Test. For more information on design and
construction refer to CMAA document MA55.
Fire Resistance - AS3700 - Masonry Structures sets out the method for
determining fire resistance of walls based on test data. It is recommended
that designers calculate or check the structural adequacy, integrity and
insulation for each wall configuration to ensure conformance to the National
Construction Code (NCC). Adbri Masonry have an extensive range
of bricks and blocks meeting the requirements of the NCC. Refer to the
Adbri NSW Masonry Fire and Sound brochure for more information.
Control Joints - Control Joints must be incorporated in masonry as necessary
to control and limit the movements referred to in AS3700 clause 2.5.2.2.
Control joints should extend the full height of the wall and be spaced 8m
centre for concrete units and at 6m centre for light weight units where walls
are not interrupted by full height doorways or window openings.
General Guidelines - All concrete blockwork should be laid dry, so covering
on site is recommended. Whenever work is stopped, the tops of walls should
be covered to prevent moisture entering the cores of the blocks and/or cavity.
All mortar joints should be allowed to set to “thumb print” hardness before
tooling. Brush away excess mortar with semi stiff brush at the end of each
days work.

Acoustics - The statutory requirements for sound attenuation are set out in
Section F5 of the NCC. The new NCC deemed-to-satisfy provisions increase
the levels of airborne sound insulation and apply to wall/floor systems
tested in the laboratory. These figures are Rw+Ctr not less than 50. Adbri
Masonry have a number of high performance wall systems which have
been developed to accomodate the new strigent requirements imposed by
the NCC, to satisfy all acoustic needs. Refer to the Adbri Masonry Fire and
Sound Brochure for more information.
Cleaning - Care shold be taken to keep bricks and blocks as clean
as possible during laying. There are various methods of general cleaning
from dry brushing, water washing and also using chemicals. For a complete
listing refer to the CMAA Code MA41. When using a weak acid mixture
it is recommended for cleaing down at no stronger than 1 part acid
to 20 parts water. Walls should be wet thoroughly before application
and washed thoroughly with water after application. High water pressure
is not recommended. Note - Always trial solution in a small area which
is not highly visible.
