Technology
The HySSIL™ product comprises readily available cementitious materials,
although crushed rock aggregates are not incorporated. The manufacturing
process relies on a patented mix formulation, a strict mix sequence
and an innovative aeration process technology.
The HySSIL™ manufacturing process utilizes a purpose designed mixer and controlled
batch sequencing process to achieve consistent quality
in terms of structural soundness and a smooth water-resistant surface
finish.
The cost of the HySSIL™ mix is comparable to the cost of
a conventional concrete mix.
Curing is achieved by conventional wet curing or by low-pressure
steam curing in the case of rapid turnover plants.
The costs of
establishing a HySSIL™ manufacturing plant are inexpensive due
to the small scale practical for the economic production
of HySSIL™ and are comparable with a conventional precast concrete
plant. The
costs are less than one tenth of the costs of establishing
competitive production plants such as an autoclaved aerated concrete
plant,
due to the elimination of the autoclaving process.
Housing System
HySSIL™ has developed a panel system specifically
design for the use in single and double storey applications. It meets
with all relevant BCA compliance and achieves an R rating of R2.3
for the 1500Kg/m3 and R2.4 for the 1000Kg/m3 density panels.
The
integrated panels provide a cost effective alternative to traditional
methods of construction, such as render brickwork & block work,
AAC panels and traditional precast concrete.
The lock-up stage
of a project is achieved more quickly thus improving the overall
build
time of the residence.
