Prefabricated Decorative Facade Finishing Material
Living in one’s own house is more comfortable in terms of the psychological climate, positive emotions, creative mood, mental activity and increasing the life expectancy of a person. In the Russian Federation, the most popular materials for the construction of walls are: timber, bricks, blocks of wood concrete, expanded concrete, foam concrete. The first two materials have a significantly higher cost, and the rest do not allow getting a complete design and require additional facade finishing of the building, the cost of which is about 25% of the total estimated cost of construction. In this regard, the development of decorative small-piece elements for facade finishing with reliability indicators corresponding to the service life of the building, securely fixed on the main wall material and having a low cost becomes an urgent task. The most convenient technological platform for the production of such finishing elements is cement systems, namely highly mobile self-compacting fine-grained concrete, which allows obtaining high-quality surfaces with low porosity. Cement finishing composites have a high degree of affinity with the main types of used wall materials, including gas silicate blocks, the mineral composition of which is also close to cement stone. In this work, the compositions of decorative fine-grained concrete for the production of finishing facade elements are developed. The issues of obtaining a high-quality smooth surface of products, as well as the effect of the addition of microsilica on the brightness of the color and its resistance under climatic conditions are considered.
