7. How do Blox fit in the building code?
Blox Building Systems and Greenstar Blox TM are currently being evaluated by the International Code Council. Tests such as freeze, thaw resistance, moisture absorbency and load deformation behavior will determine durability of the material. Compressive strengths and R-value give Blox Building Systems the ability to be used as cement stabilized Adobe and infill walls. Infill walls are constructed with blocks in a non-structural element. They fill space between concrete, steel or wood structural systems.
8. What are Blox made of?
65 % recycled paper, 25% Portland Cement, 10% Water and Additives
9. How strong are Blox?
3,000 psi, the minimum required strength for concrete.
10. What do you build with Blox?
Applications and functions are unlimited. Currently BLOX have been used to construct homes with creative architectural design, insulated walk-in coolers, retaining walls and stem walls.
11. What is the R-value of Blox?
3.2 / inch – This gives you an R-Value of 32 in a 10” wall, 45 in a 14” wall.
12. Will Blox burn or catch fire?
No, Due to the amount of cement and a fire retardant additive dosed in production the BLOX , the BLOX will not burn, catch fire, or even smoke.
13.What if Blox get wet?
Small amounts of wall are absorbed by a un-finished BLOX due to porosity; however, the water evaporates as quickly as it absorbed. There are water repelling additives used in the production the BLOX, but like other masonry materials we do recommend using some type of water proofing sealer or paint. A BLOX will actually float!!!
14. How much does a Blox weight?
About 8 ½ pounds after 14 days of curing.
15. How do you cut a Blox?
A low horse-power, electric chainsaw or reciprocating saw have proven to be very effective for both cutting BLOX and running trenches for electrical and plumbing lines.
