NBT ThermoPlan® Ziegel

The better way to build
NBT ThermoPlan® Ziegel System
The blocks are extruded with vertical perforations.

Sawdust and polystyrene particles are mixed in
with the clay matrix which, during firing, burn
away to give a micro-porous structure. The
combination of voids and pores gives the blocks Design with NBT ThermoPlan® Ziegel Blocks
their unique thermal properties.
After firing the blocks are planed top and bottom The most cost efficient and robust form of
to within 0.5mm tolerance. construction is a rendered solid 'breathing'
Blocks are available in a full range of sizes, external wall that exceeds building regulation
shapes, widths and densities and are suitable for requirements without cavities, membranes or
almost all masonry applications in low-rise additional insulation.
residential and commercial construction. NBT ThermoPlan® Ziegel external walls are
weather and air tight, very vapour permeable,
excellent for thermal insulation and also for
protection against summer over-heating, fire
resistant and with good acoustic properties.
Insulating blocks can carry loads from concrete
floors and can also be used as infill panels in
framed buildings. It is also possible to use them
below dpc level with tanking to build cellars
NBT ThermoPlan® Ziegel internal walls are denser
so they have better load-bearing, acoustic and
thermal storage properties but lower thermal
insulation. Internal blocks can be used to meet
the requirements for separating walls and have
excellent fire resistance.
Tolerances
The blocks are very accurate ONLY in the height

dimension. The width and length dimensions are
within normal manufacturing limits for building
materials.
The accuracy of the top and bottom faces allows
the use of very thin bed joints and fast laying
rates. We do however recommend allowing a
10mm bed of normal mortar every storey to
avoid cumulative errors.
Solid Plan-Ziegel walls are not designed to be
built fair-faced. Normal variations in block width
are hidden by the lightweight render and plaster
layers, which are also important for thermal and
acoustic insulation and air-tightness.
NBT has full design, training and application support to ensure successful
construction with the NBT ThermoPlan®-Ziegel system.

The better way to build
Building with NBT ThermoPlan® Ziegel
Accurate thin bed joints, dry interlocking vertical

joints, easy handling and cutting, and a full range
of lintols and accessory blocks mean fast
construction times, assured performance, good
cost benefits and lower skill requirements.
st
Time spent setting out the level of the 1 course
accurately together with good site planning gives
real benefits in site productivity.
The thin joint mortar is easy to apply either from a
special roller or by dipping each block in a
shallow tub of mortar. Blocks are then simply
stacked on the mortar bed, with perp joints
interlocked and mortar free.
NBT BaumitBayosan Renders & Plaster Finishes
For the most cost effective construction use

render and plaster wall finishes to provide air and
weather tightness and additional thermal
insulation.
NBT supply a full range of lightweight, hydraulic
lime based materials that are specially designed
and approved for NBT ThermoPlan® Ziegel
blocks and are readily available for machine or
hand application in a range of attractive colours
and textures.
A variety of cladding systems can also be used
including timber, tile hanging and brick and stone
facings.
Maintaining bond is easy using half blocks or by

cutting the blocks with purpose made saws, and
filling the gaps with insulating mortar.
The mortar gains strength and stiffness quickly so
a storey height can be built in 1 day ready for the
floor or roof the next day.
The build process is virtually dry so the wall is
immediately ready for finishing without the risk of
long-term drying out shrinkage.
There is very little wastage of material because of
the large range of special blocks and the ease of
accurate cutting.
NBT has full design, training and application support to ensure successful
construction with the NBT ThermoPlan®-Ziegel system.
